McCrae landslide update - 21 February 2025

Published on 21 February 2025

Statement from Mayor Cr Anthony Marsh

Three more McCrae properties have emergency orders lifted.

Residents of an additional three properties impacted by the landslide at McCrae are now allowed to move back into their homes.

The Emergency Orders were lifted at 9am today on these three properties, meaning a total of 11 out of 19 properties have now had the orders lifted.

We expect these properties to have power and water supply reinstated by the utility providers very soon.

Our Building Maintenance Team is on stand-by, ready to assist residents at these three properties as they move back in. Additional waste collection will also be arranged.

This is another very welcome step forward in getting affected residents safely back into their homes. We continue to speak directly with all impacted residents as we develop tailored plans for each property that map out next steps.

Our focus is now on working with the geotechnical engineers to gather more data around conditions at the remaining eight properties.
