This plan is necessary to protect and prepare our community from the climate changes that have already transpired, and those that will occur in the years to come. In the last 8 years Minden Hills has had to cope 50% of the time with spring flooding in our jurisdiction (2013, 2017 & 2019 emergency declarations, and 2016 almost a declaration) due to changing weather patterns and the ill effects that it has on our community. In living up to our municipal responsibilities in Minden Hills, initiatives such Lidar imaging, updated dam infrastructure, better operational communications with all levels of government, and municipal storm water management infrastructure have happened with the assistance of our neighbouring municipalities and both Federal and Provincial governments.
