Fire and Flood Safety
When it comes to fire and flood safety, you often don't get second chances.
Fire Safety
Fire Safety is everybody's responsibility. That's why Manly Council works with residents to promote continuing fire awareness.
Our Fire Safety objective is to achieve a level of fire safety in buildings that :-
- Adequately warns
- Protects
- Affords the occupants a safe passage of egress from the effects of fire to open space.
Manly Council provide the necessary technical information and support needed in order to reach and maintain our objective of making fire safety a reality.

Flood Safety
Warringah Council in partnership with Manly Council is carrying out a flood study to define the existing flood behaviour in the Manly Lagoon catchment.
This study will establish the basis for subsequent floodplain management planning and is being prepared to meet the objectives of the NSW State Government's Flood Policy.
The study will consider the potential flooding impacts of climate change in line with current State policy and best practice.
Warringah Council will administer the project with input from Manly Council. BMT WBM, an independent company specialising in flooding and floodplain risk management, will undertake the study.
The NSW Office of Environment and Heritage is providing financial and technical assistance.
