Public invited to information centre on Floodplain Mapping Study
For Immediate Release
Public Invited to Information Centre on Floodplain Mapping Study: A Joint Initiative by Saugeen Conservation, Municipality of West Grey, and D.M. Wills Associates Limited
Aiming to strengthen community resilience and safety, Saugeen Valley Conservation Authority (SVCA), in collaboration with the Municipality of West Grey and D.M. Wills Associates Limited, has initiated a vital study focused on updating the floodplain mapping in the Durham Creek area. This initiative primarily seeks to enhance our understanding of flood risks and explore potential mitigation strategies.
Floodplain mapping plays a crucial role in guiding decisions related to safeguarding people and properties from natural hazards.
We cordially invite residents and other interested community members to a Public Information Centre. Here, attendees will have the opportunity to examine the study area, learn about the intricacies of floodplain mapping, and engage in discussions. The community’s invaluable feedback through anecdotes, written submissions, photographs, and more, particularly regarding any past flooding experiences in this area, is highly encouraged.
Draft results of the study are anticipated to be available this coming winter.
