CORNWALL | A new Flood Risk Reduction Rebate Program is being established by the City of Cornwall to provide assistance to Cornwall homeowners in flooding-af- fected areas. The details of the new program were pre- sented by staff of the Infrastructure and Municipal Works Department during a pub- lic information session on March 26 at the Benson Centre. The framework for the new program has been approved by Cornwall City Council. It’s expected that applications will begin to be accepted in April or May once the nec- essary municipal bylaw is passed at an up- coming City Council meeting. Homeowners who did not experience flooding in 2010 or 2013 can still apply for the rebate program. However, priority will be given to those that experienced flooding or are in flooding clusters. Subject to the number and value of rebate requests received, other non-flood- ed residents may be considered as well. The City has currently budgeted up to $1.5 million over three years for the rebate program in order to assist as many home- owners as possible. Additional details about the program will be shared through the City website and through local media as they become available. The new rebate program is part of the Cornwall Blueprint, a comprehensive plan to deal with issues such as basement flooding mitigation and environmental, water and infrastructure awareness. It serves to address two key pil- lars of the City of Cornwall’s Strategic Plan: Quality of Life and Efficient Services.
