Hepburn Shire mayor Tim Drylie remains conscious of those who suffered during the weather event.

"Our thoughts are with everyone impacted by the storm and subsequent flash flooding," Cr Drylie said.

The Hepburn Shire is still focused on providing assistance to those in need.

"If anyone needs support, I strongly urge you to get in touch with our storm recovery officer on 5348 2306, who can provide advice on available social support, financial assistance, counselling, and more," Cr Drylie said.

As part of last week's emergency response, council established a relief centre at the Doug Lindsay Recreation Reserve and helped to source temporary accommodation for families.

Council then transitioned the relief centre to a recovery centre where community members could go on Friday and Saturday to receive advice.

This week, a storm recovery officer is located at the Creswick Hub during office hours. Council's economic development officer is available to provide support for businesses.

Council is offering residents in and around Creswick and Clunes the opportunity to drop off storm-related green and general waste for free at the Creswick transfer station until Monday January 17.

Cr Drylie recognises the considerable efforts of helpers who were quick to mobilise.

"Thank you to all agencies, volunteers, and staff who assisted with the clean-up and response work," he said.

"So many people put their hand up to help and we are incredibly grateful of the speed at which this was carried out and the professionalism of everyone involved," Cr Drylie said.

Cr Drylie is keen to point out council undertook a flood and drainage study for Creswick following the floods in 2010.

"This study was very comprehensive and we have implemented all the study recommendations, including construction of a levee bank which is designed for one-in-50-year floods," he said.

"We will continue to investigate what contributed to the flood and what more can be done to reduce the risk of flooding in Creswick, particularly in lower lying areas of the town.

"This will also include seeking support from other levels of government."

In addition, areas of the Moorabool Shire were heavily impacted by the floods last week.

Gordon received up to 160ml in some areas and, as a result of that, experienced the worst flooding it has had in about 20 years. Ballan also experienced flooding.

According to the community recovery team, Moorabool Shire was able to establish a sand-bagging collection point on Thursday before a secondary cell storm came through.

The sand-bagging collection point was very well received by residents.

Moorabool Shire's storm recovery team is currently undertaking impact assessments in rural areas to establish the scope of damage to those properties and farms.
