We can help you understand and manage stormwater drainage for your property.
You're responsible for taking care of any drainage infrastructure on your driveway, including pipes and culverts.
Whether you're dealing with pooling water, runoff issues or flooding, we'll guide you to sort them out.
Find out how
To find out the location of the stormwater point of discharge on an existing property, make an online request for a property/stormwater information report.

This report will also tell you about council drains, including the depth and boundary offset.
Submitting drainage plans
If your new project involves stormwater work, you may need to prepare and submit drainage plans and computations for stormwater drainage works or other civil infrastructure works, which we will need to review and approve.
You can find all the details you need in our Neighbourhood Design Manual.

If you need to do any work in a road reserve (like a nature strip) or within a council easement, you’ll need a Works in Road Reserve Permit. This makes sure your work is safe and meets all the local rules.
