News Release

As British Columbia responds to increasingly frequent climate emergencies, the Province is providing funding to better equip local governments and First Nations to respond to emergencies and support people who are evacuated. 

The District of Coldstream is excited to announce that we are a grant recipient of the Provincial Community Emergency Preparedness Fund. The grant of $39,979 will provide Emergency Operation Centre (EOC) training and operational equipment. This will help to ensure that Coldstream is better equipped to respond to emergencies and support people who are evacuated.

This funding is generously provided by the Province and administered through the Union of British Columbia Municipalities.
