As people rebuild their lives and start rebuilding and renovating flood affected properties; the council have released important information for home owners.

• If you are rebuilding your house to its original state, you are able to proceed without Council approval.

• If you want to make improvements to your house which change its original state, you may need a development approval from Council.
