The research and engagement for the development of the Tallygaroopna Flood Scoping Study was undertaken in 2023 with the final Report being tabled at the April Council meeting in 2024 and released for public consultation.

The study did recommend that the Greater Shepparton City Council undertake with the following actions in the future:

  • Include a LSIO in the planning scheme to reflect the findings of the report.
  • Impose minimum floor level controls to development in Tallygaroopna – 300 mm above the 1% AEP flood height
  • Update the GSCC Municipal Flood to reflect the finding of the study
  • Update Council’s Emergency Plan to reflect the findings of study
  • Work with GBCMA to formalise a trigger height for the control of inlet gates on Congupna creek using a newly installed creek flood height gauge.
  • A flood study followed by a floodplain risk management study utilising hydraulic modelling in the longer term.
