2. To successfully complete a Floodplain Mapping Update Study that is
Connected, Accurate, Reliable, and founded on Empirical data and
observations using state-of-the-art tools and methodologies.
Project Vision Statement
• This means that new floodline mapping will be in place for the
Welland River. The new line may affect what you can do on your
property.
• The project will fully engage affected landowners.
• Awareness, understanding and input are key principles of the
consultation program.
3. A series of Town Hall Meetings open to the public, interested
landowners and stakeholders will occur over the next 9 months.
Awareness Meetings (February 2016) will occur during the beginning of
the study and will focus on describing the project and listening to
community ideas and concerns.
Technical Understanding & Input Meetings (April 2016) will occur once
some modeling work has been completed. We will ask for feedback
that can be incorporated into the reports and mapping document.
Draft Floodline Maps (October 2016) will be presented after the
summer holiday period. Community input will be considered before
NPCA Board makes a final decision.
