The Wyndham City Stormwater Management Guideline has been established as a comprehensive framework designed to provide developers, engineers, and planners with a consistent, detailed, and clearly defined set of standards for the design, development, and implementation of stormwater infrastructure within the City of Wyndham.
The Stormwater Management Guideline serves as the Council’s formal policy document, outlining the specific requirements for drainage and stormwater management for both existing and new developments within Wyndham City.
The guideline encompasses a range of critical elements, including but not limited to:
- Essential design criteria for stormwater infrastructure
- Onsite Stormwater Detention (OSD) specifications
- Detailed submission requirements for Council approval
- Integrated Water Management (IWM) standards for small-scale developments, in alignment with Planning Scheme Clause 53.18
This comprehensive framework is designed to promote sustainable development by ensuring that all developments within Wyndham integrate stormwater drainage systems and Water Sensitive Urban Design (WSUD) solutions that adhere to best practice standards. The guideline aims to ensure that stormwater systems are developed and managed in line with the highest industry standards, comply with relevant regulatory requirements, and support the long-term sustainability goals of the local community.
