Upcoming Melbourne Water consultation on updated flood maps

Melbourne Water is updating its flood maps to better reflect the risk of flooding across parts of Melbourne, including areas in Glen Eira.

These maps help guide future planning decisions, building approvals and emergency management. They are also an important tool for helping our community prepare for potential flooding.

Melbourne Water will soon invite the community to view the updated maps and provide feedback. Your input will help ensure the maps are accurate and reflect local knowledge and experiences.

  • Consultation starts: Monday 13 October
  • Consultation closes: Friday 5 December
