Flooding, wildfire and major structure fires identified as our highest risk. Our emergency planning is focusing on the identified risks, assessment, readiness and response.
The key to our success will ultimately be determined by the efforts of each homes assessment and preparedness for emergencies. There is a critical question to ask regarding your home and family; are you ready. The (PEP) Provincial Emergency Program website has some valuable information available to assist homeowners in preparing for their security in the event of emergencies and we encourage you to visit that site to gather and use the information your feel is of use to your family.
