We want all South Australians to feel safe in their community.
Protecting you from fire and flood
The increasing rate of natural disasters has resulted in industry-wide insurance premium increases and is leaving a lasting financial and personal toll.
RAA is committed to working with communities, industry, and government to help reduce the impact of natural disasters on South Australians.
This requires a broad approach including infrastructure, such as levees, more rigorous land use planning decisions, and changes to planning and building codes.
RAA will continue to work with all levels of government, industry and other stakeholders to ensure insurance cover remains viable and affordable in the future.
Improving land use planning
RAA supports the development of a new 30-year plan for greater Adelaide to deliver sustainable long-term growth for Greater Adelaide and improve housing affordability.
There needs to be a long-term plan that supports Adelaide’s population growth needs while giving greater consideration of flood and fire-risk zones in new development planning.
Currently, many areas of land available and proposed for development are in high-risk areas for natural perils including bushfire and flood.
