Sessions

Acceptable risk and the broader landscape

  • Day 1: Tuesday 16 July 2024
  • 9:30 am – 10:00 am
  • Grand River Ballroom

The devastating bushfires in the summer of 2019/20 highlighted to many of us, the very different world we are living in, in the face of climate change, and the need to expand our thinking around bushfire risk.  The new draft State Planning Policy 3.7 Bushfire introduces a new methodology for WA that considers the risk presented by the broader landscape that surrounds a development site, and provides a framework to determine whether the risk is unacceptable and should be avoided.
