Flooding of the Yarra Valley, including that section of the Yarra bordering Kew and Kew East in the north and west of the municipality, was a regular occurrence. Extreme flood events of the Yarra River are recorded to have occurred in 1891, 1901, 1916, 1923 and 1934. The Municipality of Kew's response to these floods was to enact planning decisions restricting residential development in flood prone areas following the floods of 1916, 1921 and 1934. While floods continued after the development of the Upper Yarra Reservoir (construction 1948-57), the regularity and extent of these inundations diminished.

In August 1976, MMBW commissioned Consultants to provide comprehensive planning services for the preparation of a Plan for the development of the Yarra Valley Metropolitan Park, the proposed Park is a linear corridor surrounded by the Heidelberg and Eltham communities to the north; the Camberwell, Doncaster and Templestowe and Warrandyte communities are located to the south. Parklands comprise about 1700 hectares or about 4200 acres of land extending from Burke Road Bridge to Pound Bend, Warrandyte. The consultants (Scott and Furphy Engineers Pty Ltd, Landscape Division) were directed to investigate all recreation, conservation and landscape aspects which would have direct visual, environmental or regional recreation bearing on the proposed parkland. Their final report is published bearing in mind that the development of the Yarra Valley Metropolitan Park must occur over a long span of time. melbourne metropolitan board of works, yarra river, yarra river valley, yarra valley metropolitan park
