The province has made $32 million available to people who suffered non-insurable damage, typically water in basements, during four July thunderstorms that flooded at least 1,700 homes, mainly in south Edmonton.
People are asked to bring government-issued photo ID, as well as a letter from their insurance company confirming the losses were uninsurable, a tax assessment and a list of damaged items, if available.
Applicants can also get forms online at aema.alberta.ca or by calling 1-888-671-1111, and can mail them to the Alberta Emergency Management Agency.
The application deadline is Jan. 10.
