Meanwhile as we can not deny the municipality status mission ,its something we are working flat out to accomplish.

Public Notice

0

To All Residents,

We have received reports that some residents are blocking stormwater from flowing through their properties. Please note that this practice is unneighbourly and creates serious risks, especially in neighborhoods with earth roads and limited drainage infrastructure. Blocking stormwater flow can lead to pooling, erosion, and flooding, causing potential damage to neighboring properties.
To protect everyone’s property, residents are instructed to:
•Allow stormwater to flow naturally through your property as designed to prevent flooding.
•Avoid placing barriers or other obstructions that could disrupt the natural drainage path.
Our team will be conducting inspections, and corrective actions may be taken if necessary.

Thank you for helping us keep our community safe from preventable water damage.
