I am gonna assume that was aimed at me at least partly if not fully.. I wasn't talking about flash flood mitigation or having flood gates I was referring to having higher banks on the river and a storm water drain shutof system that seals the ducts that leave to the river as the water level on the exit points reaches over the exit port. This isn't the 1st time this has happend and a river braking it's banks is not a uncommon thing, but I meant the damage, some at least, could have been avoided since it has already happend before.. And in regards to toowoomba it was ment to say that it was unavoidable (not the double negative I typoed)
