Wellington planning - frequently asked

Is Wellington flood-prone?

We don't yet hold flood mapping covering Wellington, 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. Dubbo Regional is the authority to check for flood mapping in this area. Flood overlays vary block to block, so whether a particular lot is affected needs a property-level check.

Is Wellington bushfire-prone?

Yes - around 69% of Wellington is mapped as bushfire-prone, compared with a Dubbo Regional average of 97%. A bushfire-prone designation can trigger additional building requirements, so check the specific address.

Does Wellington have heritage-listed places?

Wellington has 73 heritage-listed places on record. Heritage listing affects what you can alter or demolish, so confirm whether a specific property is listed or near a heritage place.
