An action out of the Brisbane River Catchment Flood Study and Brisbane River Strategic Floodplain Management Plan if for each local government within the Brisbane River Floodplain is required to develop a local floodplain management plan (or LFMP).
The Lockyer Valley Local Floodplain Management Plan 2024 (LFMP) is a high-level management plan that assists Council and the community to understand the intricacies of floodplain management. Combining our existing information, mitigation and resilience measures, and taking a risk-based approach to land use planning, the LFMP views floodplain management through five guiding principles and set out actions to build Council’s, and the region’s, prevention, preparedness, response and recovery capability.
