N.B. residents eligible for flood damage relief
Anyone in the Battlefords whose home was damaged by the severe rainfall earlier this month is eligible for assistance from the province.
North Battleford administration announced today that due to the severe rainfall on Aug. 8, residents can apply for assistance under the Provincial Disaster Assistance Program (PDAP).
To apply, residents must document the damages as much as possible with pictures, invoices, receipts and any other proof of payments to determine the extent of insurance coverage.
Businesses which also experienced flood damage may also be eligible for assistance. The city advises business owners to contact PDAP for more information.
