Warneet flood map & planning overlays

The schematic on this page is a Warneet flood map: the mapped flood overlays drawn over the suburb's terrain and street grid, covering about 65% of the suburb. Flood lines vary block to block, so for a specific property use the free interactive map - search any Warneet address and it shows the flood, zoning and bushfire mapping on the exact lot boundary.

About 65% of Warneet falls within a mapped flood overlay, against the council-wide suburb average of 18%. Flood overlays vary block to block, so whether a particular lot is affected needs a property-level check.

Around 97% of Warneet is mapped as bushfire-prone, compared with a Casey average of 59%. A bushfire-prone designation can trigger additional building requirements, so check the specific address.

The dominant planning zone in Warneet is Rural Conservation Zone (RCZ), though the suburb also includes Public Conservation and Resource Zone (PCRZ) and Township Zone (TZ). Zoning sets what you can build and do on a site, and can differ lot by lot.

Warneet has 2 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.

Across 284 surveyed parcels in Warneet, the median lot size is about 932 m². There are also 25 registered easements mapped in the suburb - an easement can restrict where you can build, so always check the title and overlays for the specific lot.
