Flood Risk
Clarkson is a northern coastal suburb of Perth, WA with relatively low flood risk. The area is not identified within a major flood-prone catchment comparable to eastern Australian systems (Brisbane River, Hawkesbury-Nepean, etc.). Typical WA flood planning controls apply, focusing on local stormwater management and minor watercourse setbacks rather than sheet inundation overlays.
Planning Controls
- •Western Australian Planning Commission (WAPC) flood risk assessment requirements for developments near watercourses
- •Local Water Management Strategy (LWMS) compliance for stormwater management
- •Consideration of Indian Ocean drainage patterns and seasonal rainfall events
- •Development setback requirements from mapped watercourses or drainage lines
