Coneac zoning & planning overlays

A planning-constraint profile of Coneac (Mid-Coast, NSW) - 45.12 km², mapped from live council and state overlay data. This suburb is highly constrained on the overlays we could measure - no flood mapping covers this suburb, so this is not a suburb-wide verdict.
Profile updated 3 October 2026.

Elevation hillshade with street names, clipped to Coneac's boundary, with the bushfire and environmental overlays drawn on top. No flood layer is drawn because we hold no flood mapping for this area.

Aircraft noise and flight paths over Coneac

Two different things, kept apart on purpose. The ANEF contour is the planning instrument - a forecast published per airport that planning schemes use to control noise-sensitive development. Observed overflight is what a sampled aircraft-tracking feed actually recorded over the suburb - where aircraft flew, how low and how often.

Coneac planning - frequently asked

Is Coneac flood-prone?

We don't yet hold flood mapping covering Coneac, so this page can't say how much of the suburb is flood-affected - that is a gap in our data, not an indication that the suburb is free of flood risk. Mid-Coast is the authority to check for flood mapping in this area.

Is Coneac bushfire-prone?

Around 100% of Coneac is mapped as bushfire-prone, compared with a Mid-Coast average of 94%.

Is Coneac under a flight path?

No aircraft were observed over Coneac in the period sampled (4 Sep 2026 to 2 Oct 2026). Sampling is intermittent, so that is a floor rather than proof that none fly over. Traffic is sampled rather than watched continuously and flight paths change with runway use, weather and season; the ANEF contour is the planning instrument.

What is the zoning in Coneac?

The dominant planning zone in Coneac is Primary Production, though the suburb also includes Forestry and National Parks and Nature Reserves.

Does Coneac have heritage-listed places?
