Adaptation outcomes and associated actions

The assessment of inundation risks to these localities show the level of risk to most asset type is
acceptable, with the exception of risks to natural areas expected to become intolerable by 2070.

Analysis of socio-economic, environmental, and governance considerations, as well as community
input, indicate the most appropriate adaptation pathway for responding to inundation risks in this
locality is one that seeks the continuing provision of key infrastructure services over the medium- to
long-term. As a result, the preferred adaptation outcome23 for this locality is:

    -    Service infrastructure assets accommodate the increase in inundation risk through adaptive
         design.

Figure 21 shows the expected progression of these preferred outcomes between 2020 and 2100.
Table 23. provides a breakdown of actions in support of these outcomes, to be pursued within the
five year life of this plan.
