Flood zone
Land Subject to Inundation Overlay (LSIO) and Yarra River 1% AEP floodplain
Richmond is situated within the Yarra River floodplain and is classified as a high-risk flood area under Victoria's planning framework. The suburb experiences regular flood inundation during major rainfall events, particularly along the Yarra River and its tributary networks. Properties are subject to the LSIO and strict planning controls designed to manage exposure to the 1% AEP flood event and above.
Planning controls
- Development in LSIO areas requires demonstrated flood-risk mitigation and finished floor levels above the Probable Maximum Flood (PMF) or 1% Annual Exceedance Probability (AEP) level
- Mandatory flood assessment and engineering certification for buildings, particularly residential and vulnerable uses, in mapped floodplain areas
- Restrictions on basement construction and requirement for wet or dry floodproofing measures in accordance with Building Code of Australia (BCA) and VicCode
- Mandatory notification and disclosure of flood risk to purchasers; consideration of Bushfire Management Overlay (BMO) in some areas
