The City of Courtenay is working on a new project to develop a flood management plan.

The City says as climate change progresses, communities located near the ocean and rivers, including the City of Courtenay, are experiencing impacts from increased flooding.

The City is working with a team of consultants on the next phase of the Flood Management Plan, which aims to understand the risk of flood to the community and develop risk reduction strategies that reflect community priorities.

The plan will include opportunities for interested and affected parties, K’ómoks First Nation rights and title holders, and local residents to provide their feedback.
