We still don’t have an official word on when Williams Lake and area residents will be able to return to their homes but the City is ready says, Mayor Walt Cobb.
“We’re busy here busy getting everything done, ready for bringing people home. But at this stage of the game, it’s up to the Fire Centre, but we’re ready to go.”
A Resiliency Centre has also been established on the 2nd level of the Boitanio Mall in Williams Lake.
“It’s a place where the many agencies that are here to help the people that have been displaced when they come home. there is the Red Cross, there will be an insurance agent, apparently, ICBC is interested in being there, First Nations Health, First Nations people,” says Dave Dickson, community safety manager.
Dickson says anyone returning to the town that has questions can likely find the answer there.
