Greater Shepparton has made a submission to the Legislative Council Environment and Planning Committee's inquiry into the October 2022 flood event in Victoria.
The October 2022 flood impacted Greater Shepparton in many ways, with the communities of Bunbartha, Kialla, Mooroopna, Murchison, Shepparton, Toolamba and Undera all significantly, directly affected.
In the submission we focus on elements of the emergency for which Council has a direct role, and opportunities for recovery.
We have also taken the opportunity to thank community members, emergency management agencies, and local community providers and businesses for their vital role in supporting our community.
