  • 415 Commonwealth Road, Holiday Park – Park Place building

These affected residents are encouraged to register with the Emergency Support Services volunteers staffing the reception centre at the Salvation Army Church, 1480 Sutherland Ave. (corner of Sutherland Avenue and Burtch Road). It will open at 11 a.m. Monday.

Residents should use extreme caution and keep children and pets away from creek banks which can be very slippery and subject to erosion.  Water levels and flows may rise unexpectedly.  Boaters are asked to keep speeds down when near the shoreline to reduce potential wake erosion.  As well, they should watch for floating debris flowing into area lakes due to the higher flows.

The following previously issued Evacuation Orders and Alerts continue to be in effect:
