Public Information Centre No. 2 – comments received

The Virtual Public Information Centre (PIC) No. 2 was held from February 17, 2022 to March 10, 2022. This included a StoryMaps presentation (including alternative format), project materials for review, and an opportunity for interested individuals to provide comments via an online comment form.

PIC No. 2 materials for review included project summary including project evaluation (Class EA Phase 1 and 2) and next steps. These materials will remain posted on the Stormwater Servicing Master Plan for Regional Roads project website.

To maintain public information privacy, responses to comments received will be provided to individual stakeholders and included in the Stormwater Master Plan study with the exception of private contact details.

As such, the comment and response will be documented.

Comment/Question:

Is there risk of surcharge and flooding due to pipe upsizing being undertaken at the time of asset renewal and not planned for sooner?

Response:

There are no known historical complaints of flooding in the identified areas for upsizing. Based on all available information including the modelling assessment, the severity of the issues do not require immediate action but should be considered in terms of pipe upsizing at the time of asset renewal.
