How do I check if a property in Nillumbik is in a flood zone?

Search the exact address in the free overlay map, which shows the mapped flood overlays on that property.

By share of suburb area inside mapped flood overlays: Eltham (12%), North Warrandyte (12%), Bend Of Islands (7%), Diamond Creek (7%), Eltham North (7%). These are suburb-wide shares, so streets within the same suburb can differ.
