Liverpool City Council provides additional assistance to the community during recent floods

Liverpool City Council has provided vital assistance to the community alongside The State Emergency Service (SES) during the recent floods that have heavily affected some parts of Liverpool.

As heavy rain fell in Liverpool from Friday 19 March, Council responded quickly to ensure there was minimal disruption to residents. There were numerous emergency call-outs during this time, with a number of staff working in difficult conditions to repair roads, unblock drains and clear debris from storm damage such as fallen trees.

Mayor Wendy Waller said it has been a mammoth effort for all involved and would like to thank the SES, Council staff and all volunteers who helped keep Liverpool safe.

“It was no easy job, there were floods all over Liverpool, roads were closed and damaged, trees had fallen, but I’m proud that we were able to work hard to help the community,” she said.

“My heart goes out to all the other Councils around Sydney and all of the individuals who are experiencing major flooding,” she said.

Liverpool City Council will continue to assist to repair damages in the community due to the floods over the coming weeks. To lodge an online request please visit https://www.liverpool.nsw.gov.au/services/online-services
