City Council Resolves to Apply for Provincial Disaster Assistance Program
At a Special Council Meeting held at 12:10PM on July 22, 2026, City Council passed a resolution directing City Administration to apply for designation under the Provincial Disaster Assistance Program (PDAP) for the severe storm and flooding on July 18 and 19, 2026.
Our application is currently pending provincial review. Nothing has been approved yet, and local claims cannot be processed until the province grants official approval.
WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW RIGHT NOW:
- Contact Your Insurance First: PDAP only covers uninsurable losses. You must contact your insurance provider to start a claim. If the City’s PDAP application is approved, you will need a formal letter from your insurer stating what your policy does and does not cover.
- Document Everything: Take photos and videos of all damage before cleaning up. Keep detailed logs of cleanup hours and equipment used, and save every receipt and invoice.
- Hold Off on Major Repairs: Completing major structural or foundation repairs before an official program adjuster inspects your property could impact your eligibility for funding.
To learn more about the program, see the 2026 SaskatchewanPDAP General Claim Guidelines.
We will notify the community as soon as we are updated about the status of our application.
