Land Subject to Inundation Overlay (LSIO) and Yarra River flood study areas
Port Melbourne is highly flood-prone due to its low-lying proximity to the Yarra River estuary and Port Phillip Bay, with significant portions subject to the LSIO under Victoria's planning scheme. The suburb experiences tidal influences and storm surge risk, compounded by historical flood events in the Yarra catchment. Stringent planning controls and flood-mitigation measures are mandatory for new development.
Planning controls
- Development must incorporate flood-resistant design and elevated finished floor levels above the Probable Maximum Flood (PMF) or 1% AEP level
- Mandatory flood impact assessment and hydraulic modelling for new buildings and substantial alterations
- Restrictions on basement development and requirements for wet/dry floodproofing strategies
- Consideration of future climate change and sea-level rise in flood planning and design
