Sutherland Shire, along with 12 other council areas, has been designated to receive government disaster assistance due to significant flooding incidents.
This support is facilitated through the joint efforts of the Australian and New South Wales governments under the Commonwealth-State Disaster Recovery Funding Arrangements (DRFA).
The funding aims to cover the expenses involved in the cleanup and the restoration of crucial public infrastructure.
Additionally, it offers financial aid and other forms of assistance to residents and small businesses adversely affected by the floods.
