Appendix 3: Coastal Hazard Risk Assessment Maps




Note on how to read the maps in Appendix 3:

Each map shows the distribution of risk determined for a single hazard and year, across a given
locality.

Risks are scaled from 'Low Risk' to 'Very High Risk', and this is reflected in the colour scheme
used.

All lots, both publicly- and privately-owned, receive a risk rating regardless of whether the entire
lot or only a portion of it is exposed to the coastal hazard in question.

Given their small size relative to much larger parcels of land, many private lots (residential and
other) have been aggregated into 'neighbourhoods'. Each of these 'neighbourhoods' has
received a risk rating based on the collective hazard exposure and impact across that entire
area. Therefore, the lots within a particular 'neighbourhood' may have varying levels of
exposure to a given hazard. The level of exposure for an individual lot can be viewed using
Council's online mapping tool. The same approach has been used where smaller assets (e.g.
playground) sit within a larger asset (an area of open space); an example of this is Peregian
Park (Plover Street).
