Following last month's heavy storms, the Rural Municipality of Portage la Prairie has officially declared Delta Beach in a state of disaster.
Delta Beach Association spokesperson Don Clarkson asked RM council on November 9 to confirm the area is in a state of disaster, in an effort to apply for aid from the Province.
"It's a step in trying to receive any relief or funding from the Province or the Federal Government to repair the damage that was done by the storm of the 26th and 27th of October," said Clarkson.
He said the high winds from the storms during the last week of October caused erosion damage and high water levels.
"It's very serious on some people's property," said Clarkson. "It's very minor on other people's property. It's one of those freaks of nature."
