The good news for some Rockland homeowners is they might not have to worry about a spring flood situation again this year.

Voisine Street was one of the neighbourhoods hardest hit by last year’s spring flooding in Rockland. Other areas included the Pago Road neighbourhood, along with some portions of Clarence and Fox Island, which was almost inundated. This year there may not be any flooding thanks to a milder winter and spring season. The City of Clarence-Rockland has a new policy on flood management now, though, that puts more of the burden on homeowners to protect their property. —photo Gregg Chamberlain IFIBTBTTVSBODFTGSPNQSPWJODJBMPGàDJBMT UIBUUIFNPOFZXJMMCFQBJECVUOPJOEJDBUJPO XIFO "OPUIFSQSPCMFNGPSUIFDJUZJTUIBUUIF QSPWJODJBMHPWFSONFOUNBZ SFWJTF JUTPXO áPPESFMJFGQPMJDZ XIJDIDPVMENFBOFJUIFS MFTTSFJNCVSTFNFOUGVOETPSNPSFSFTUSJD UJPOTPOIPXBNVOJDJQBMJUZDBORVBMJGZGPS áPPESFMJFGBJE5IBUQSPNQUFEDPVODJMBOE DJUZBENJOJTUSBUJPO UP SFWJFXBMM UIFDPTUT JOWPMWFEXJUIMBTUZFBSTáPPENBOBHFNFOU TJUVBUJPOBOEQSFQBSFBOFXNVOJDJQBMQPMJDZ UPBWPJEBOZIVHFTVSQSJTFEFCUTGPSUIFDJUZ i8FDBOUBGGPSEBNJMMJPOEPMMBSTPVS TFMWFTJGJUIBQQFOTBHBJO uTBJE%FTKBSEJOT New flood policy 5IFNBJO GPDVTPGUIFOFXáPPEQPMJDZ GPSUIFDJUZJTQVCMJDBXBSFOFTTPGUIFáPPE SJTLUPIPNFPXOFSTJODFSUBJOBSFBTPG$MB SFODF3PDLMBOE5IFSFWJTFECVJMEJOHDPEF HVJEFMJOFTGPSEFTJHOBUFEáPPEQMBJOBSFBT PG UIFNVOJDJQBMJUZOPX SFRVJSFBIJHIFS GPVOEBUJPOGPSBTUSVDUVSFUIBUJTXFMMBCPWF UIFNBYJNVNáPPEJOHMFWFMPGUIFBSFB *G UIFSF JTB SJTLPGTQSJOHáPPEJOH GPS TPNFBSFBT UIF$JUZXJMMQSPWJEFTBOECBHT GPSIPNFPXOFSTUPNBLFUIFJSPXOTBOECBH XBMMT5IFDJUZXJMMBMTPQSPWJEFJOTUSVDUJPOBM WJEFPTGPSBOZIPNFPXOFSXIPIBTBIPNF JOBáPPEQMBJOBSFBPSEFDJEFTUPCVJMEJOB áPPEQMBJOBSFBPOUIFQSPQFSUFDIOJRVFGPS CVJMEJOHBTBOECBHXBMM *GBáPPETJUVBUJPOFYJTUT UIFDJUZXJMM EFTJHOBUFBTJUFXIFSFIPNFPXOFSTDBO HFUTBOEBOETBOECBHT GPSCVJMEJOH UIFJS XBMMT'JMMJOH UIFTBOECBHTBOE USBOTQPS UJOHUIFNXPVMECFUIFSFTQPOTJCJMJUZPGUIF IPNFPXOFSTBOEPSWPMVOUFFSTXIPDIPTF UPIFMQPVUEVSJOHUIFTJUVBUJPO 5IFDJUZTGPDVTXJMMCFPONBLJOHTVSF UIFXBUFSUSFBUNFOUQMBOUJTBCMFUPNBJOUBJO BGSFTIESJOLJOHXBUFSTVQQMZGPSUIFNVOJDJ QBMJUZEVSJOHBáPPETJUVBUJPOBOESFQBJSJOH NVOJDJQBMSPBETEBNBHFECZáPPEJOH
