A comprehensive floodplain risk management strategy is required for the Queanbeyan Central Business District (CBD). This was recommended by the recently completed Queanbeyan Floodplain Risk Management Study and Plan. It would address issues such as the suitability of "shelter-in-place" as a flood risk management strategy, the management of overland flow and gradual infill development, and the suitability of a flood warning system in the Queanbeyan CBD.
The CBD is seen as a critical area for flood management in Queanbeyan due to the CBD's propensity to be impacted by major floods, incomplete hydraulic model to fully understand major overland flows in the CBD, the presence of high-density development (commercial and residential) and plans for future development.
Grant funding has been obtained from NSW Department of Climate Change, Energy, the Environment and Water (DCCEEW) as part of the 2021/22 NSW Floodplain Management Program, with NSW DCCEEW covering two-thirds of the project cost.
Council have engaged Lyall & Associates to produce the Floodplain Risk Management Strategy for the Queanbeyan CBD.
