  • Fraser River Flood Protection
    Ref: 4984361203924 FEB Z8 2014 His Worship Mayor Bruce Banman City of Abbotsford 32315 South Fraser Way Abbotsford, British Columbia V2T lW7 Dear Mayor Banman: Thank you for yourletter of December 18, 2013, and meeting of February 4, 2014, regarding your request for funding, to address flooding issues and concerns in the Fraser River upstream of Beharrell Road in Abbotsford and the Matsqui Dike. We are pleased to confirm that the City of Abbotsford can proceed, as requested, with erosion protection works on the Fraser River to mitigate the growth of the new Erosion Arc located upstream of Beharrell Road near the Matsqui Dike. The works will be funded by the City of Abbotsford with the province supporting the project through the reallocation of $ 1.218 million from the unconstructed 2007 Ridgedale Bank Armouring project. In regard to seeking additional funding for this project, the province also urges the City of Abbotsford to approach other stakeholders or benefactors for potential funding such as Aboriginal Affairs and Northern Development Canada or Metro Vancouver. Emergency Management BC's, Flood Protection Program (FPP), is the province's only mechanism to provide funding to local governments for flood protection and mitigation works. As you know, the FPP is application based, and the final application intake to the program closed in May 2013. Neither of the projects you are requesting funding for were included within the last application intake. Please note that the 2013 intake will fully subscribe the FPP and no additional funding is anticipated at this time. Accordingly, your request for an additional $2.2 million to undertake the Ridgedale Bank Armouring project cannot be considered at this time as it was not included within the last application intake and funding is not available.
