What can I do if stormwater is being diverted onto my property?
If you believe that stormwater has been diverted onto your property due to substantial changes to a neighbouring property which would have required building or development approval (e.g. retaining walls above one metre, building extensions etc.), you can email or write to Council: The Manager Compliance and Regulatory Services Brisbane City Council GPO Box 1434 Brisbane QLD 4001 In most other cases, you will have to pursue the issue as a civil matter. Council has no power to intervene in civil matters. Residents may wish to use the State Government’s free dispute resolution centre.
