At the Regular Meeting of Council on July 14, 2026, Council declared a State of Agricultural Disaster due to excessive moisture condition that have resulted in saturated soils, drowned-out crop acres, forced heading in grain crops, reduced yield potential, and below-average hay and silage production, for the purpose of raising awareness of the impacts affecting agricultural producers and advocating for continued provincial assessment and support, recognizing that the declaration does not automatically trigger municipal, provincial or federal funding assistance.
