The District of Lake Country is performing mitigation procedures and assessments on its creeks to prepare for floods, said Lake Country’s mayor.

Mayor James Baker said remediation work is still being done from last year’s floods.

For this time of year, the snowpack is 150 per cent above average and Ellison Lake’s watershed is also above average levels for this time of year, he said.

Baker said with climate change, the district will have to meet the Central Okanagan’s changing weather conditions.
