Further Submissions on Summary of Submission Addendum - Flood Assessment Area Map

Environment Canterbury provided a proposed updated Flood Assessment Area Overlay map for Hearing F (Natural Hazards), which was held on 30 April – 1 May 2025.

The map seeks expand the extent of the Flood Assessment Area Overlay in some areas and reduce its extent in other areas. If Environment Canterbury 's proposal is accepted by the Hearing Panel, it may affect landowners who were not affected by the notified version.

Land in the overlay may be affected by specific rules in the Natural Hazards Chapter. Timaru District Council has publicly notified updated flooding information for further submissions, so those affected can have their say.   The further submission period opened 17^th July 2025 and closes 5pm 1^st August 2025.
