The Chief Executive of the Department for Trade and Investment is seeking to amend the Planning and Design Code to provide clearer guidance for impacted communities to rebuild more flood-resilient development.

These amendments are informed by the extent and levels of floodwaters during the recent flood and aim to minimise the impact of future River Murray floods on permanent residents, shack owners and caravan and tourist parks.
