9 flood management conditions imposed by Camden across 6 development applications in our dataset. Flood management conditions address building on flood-prone land — minimum habitable floor levels, flood-compatible materials and construction, evacuation planning and protection of overland flow paths.
6. Clearly delineate the extent/location of the 5% annual exceedance probability (AEP), the 1% AEP, the probable maximum flood and the flood planning level (FPL) lines and clearly label them as such (only if the site is flood affected). The FPL is defined in Council’s Flood Risk Management Policy. The plans and information must be accompanied by certification from a suitably qualified civil engineer certifying that they comply with Council’s engineering specifications. Condition reason: To ensure that civil works are designed to appropriate standards. (16) Long service levy - Before the issue of a construction certificate, the long service levy must be paid at the prescribed rate to either…

2. The design drawings for the OSD/Bioretention basin associated with the access road and parking area must be updated to: a) Show the correct 1% AEP (1:100 year) flood extent. b) Raise the top of the basin embankment (berm) to achieve 500 mm freeboard above the 1% AEP design water level. c) Include an emergency overflow route, as specified in the DRAINS model (40 m long × 2 m wide), with appropriate scour protection (e.g. rock riprap or energy dissipation measures). d) Confirm the shape, dimensions, and filter surface area of the media, consistent with the MUSIC model and the Stormwater Management Report (Henry & Hymas, 1 May 2025). e) Submit a revised catchment plan to support the updated…
