Prince Albert District Planning Commission

Invitation for Member at Large Appointment to the District Planning Commission

The Prince Albert District Planning Commission is an advisory body comprised of the City of Prince Albert, and the Rural Municipalities of Buckland and Prince Albert.

The PADPC has since become a model of district planning commissions for others throughout the province. The Planning Commission provides planning expertise to the member councils, specifically to reviewing subdivision and development applications, and administering the policies within the Official Community Plan.

The Member at Large appointment is a 3 year term position and involves attending monthly meetings to discuss planning and development issues pertaining to the district. Meetings are typically scheduled for 9:00 a.m., the first Wednesday of each month.

DISASTER ASSISTANCE AVAILABLE TO FLOOD-STRICKEN COMMUNITIES

Heavy rain-stricken Saskatchewan communities and individuals may be eligible to claim for financial assistance from the Provincial Disaster Assistance Program (PDAP), administered by the Ministry of Corrections, Public Safety and Policing.

PDAP provides financial assistance to municipalities and individuals for uninsurable, essential property damaged by a natural disaster such as flooding, tornadoes, plough winds and severe weather.

"The impact of the heavy rains that I saw when I toured the Maple Creek area last Saturday was truly astonishing," Corrections, Public Safety and Policing Minister D.F. (Yogi) Huyghebaert said. "Residents of Maple Creek and all other communities’ hard-hit by flooding resulting from recent downpours should know that financial assistance can be available to them through PDAP."

Officials from PDAP are working with Maple Creek, and residents and businesses in other communities around the province. Other officials from Corrections, Public Safety and Policing have been providing other response and recovery support when needed.

Communities and individuals from areas of the province other than Maple Creek who experienced losses related to the recent heavy rainfall can provide information about their location and value of damaged property to their local municipal office. Local officials will help determine if the losses or damage meet PDAP criteria.

For more information on the PDAP application process, click the link on CPSP's home page at www.cpsp.gov.sk.ca or you can call toll-free 1-866-632-4033. News Release June 22, 2011
