Flood threat easing in Lumby

LUMBY — Officials in Lumby are breathing easier over potential flooding in the village.

Mayor Kevin Acton says it appears the freshet has passed.

“We saw some of the peak flows and it did get up there quite a bit this year again. Thankfully, we had stuff in place and nothing got damaged too bad.”

Acton says the situation has improved enough, the village will likely shut down its Emergency Operations Centre.
