West-End Flooding Expected: KELLY

I know that this is the last thing anyone wants to hear right now, but the Ottawa River Regulation Planning Board updated their flood forecast last evening and people need to pay attention.

It looks like by Tuesday we will see levels on the Ottawa River that will be similar to the first peak we experienced in spring of 2023.

During that peak, there were homes in Constance Bay, Dunrobin Shores, Willola Beach, and Vydon Acres affected. If you were affected during the first peak in April 2023, you should be taking time this weekend to prepare.

The city is deploying resources, and you will see a lot of activity over the coming days. We have also obtained assistance from the province and an NGO, who are bringing a sandbag filling machine from Toronto. It will arrive in Constance Bay later today. I am meeting with city staff and will provide further updates shortly.
