Campbelltown residents can now have their say and provide their input into the Draft Southern Catchments Flood Study.
The study includes all or part of the suburbs of Airds, Bradbury, St Helens Park, Ambarvale and Rosemeadow and covers the Mansfield and Spring Creek catchments as well as several smaller waterways that drain to the Georges River.
It reports on key flooding characteristics such as flood depths and speed, which will help Council to identify any flood management measures required in the study area as well as assisting emergency management planning and guiding future development.
“Flood studies are an important tool for Council and emergency services to plan emergency management responses and put in place any mitigation measures needed,” Mayor George Greiss said.
“I encourage anyone interested, to view the study and provide their feedback to ensure the views and experiences of the community are captured within the final study,” Cr Greiss said.
Residents interested in viewing the study in person and speaking to a staff member or Council’s consultant can attend a consultation session to be held on Wednesday 1 February at the Campbelltown City Council Staff Training Centre at 91 Queen Street, Campbelltown from 3:30pm to 7pm.
