Hazards Overlay Code as it comprises the safety of people and property from
the site’s residual flood and bushfire risks.

Reconfiguring a Lot Code as the proposed lots are located within a flood hazard
area and the proposal seeks to fill the site to in an attempt to make it suitable for
the development.
3. There is no effective evacuation route that remains passible, with sufficient flood
warning time, to enable people to progressively evacuate from the site or an area
that allows for safe congregation and refuge during a probable maximum flood.
4. The proposed development is likely to further burden disaster management
response and capacity during flood events.

proposed development relies on inappropriate bushfire mitigation measures to
maintain the safety of people and property.
