Help us prevent flooding, and protect your home and community
While the weather's nice, and before the next lot of rain arrives, it's a great time to check your gutters, spouting and drainpipes for leaves, twigs and debris. Blockages can cause flooding and damage.🍂
We’re out and about every day doing our bit to manage our stormwater network and prevent flooding where possible, but we can’t be everywhere. If you see something we need to know about, send us an Antenno request.

Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?
With the government cracking down on gangs, it is now illegal for gang members to display their insignia in public places whether through clothing or their property.
This means arrests can be made if these patches are worn in places like restaurants, shops, on public transport or ferries, and on airplanes. Arrests were made recently at a funeral.
