Orillia to invest $100K to revise flood map, boost development
OrilliaMatters 7I understand the desire to have more usable land. But, if you are concerned about climate change causing heavier rainfall and more flooding, I don't understand why you would allow building in what will now be designated as a fringe area.

OrilliaMatters 5I would like to see data included in an article such as this. I think a chart showing average July temperature by year would be informative. I did randomly check about five other years on the environment Canada website and find that July temperatures in 2005 and 2018 were similar to this July.
