We provide and maintain a stormwater system that meets the needs our city and environment. We are continually making improvements to our system to manage flooding and safety issues whilst minimising pollutants entering the system.
Protecting Ecosystems
We are committed to protecting the environment and our harbour. We have installed dozens of gross pollutant traps to collect rubbish and prevent it from entering precious ecosystems. New sites for these are continually assessed and traps are installed each year.
Stormwater Plans for New Developments
New developments and subdivisions (other than single dwellings) must supply a stormwater plan for approval to ensure the stormwater will drain effectively and meet Council’s guidelines.
If you would like to connect to Council’s stormwater system please visit our Works Permit page for information to ensure the works are carried out to the correct specifications.
