Tweed Shire Council
14 July 2021
Changes take effect across the state from today
In March 2017 ex-Tropical Cyclone Debbie brought widespread flooding to the Tweed. A flood level marker at Murwillumbah.
New planning controls for flood-prone land will begin to come into effect from today (14 July) to better protect life and property in the event of extreme flooding in the Tweed.
The NSW Government announced the new, final Flood Prone Land Package in late May, following an earlier public exhibition in 2020, which includes compulsory and opt-in reforms to land use regulations and planning controls.
The amendments will support Council’s ability to manage the risk of extreme flooding through improved land planning and development controls, with some of the new controls to commence from today. Savings provisions apply to development applications lodged with Council before today.
