Re-entry instructions Instructions for self-assessment of homes Re-entry information centres are being established for residents who have been approved to safely return home at the following locations: • Cliff Bungalow/Mission - 2201 Cliff St SW • Montgomery – 5003 16 AV NW • Bowness – 7904 43 Av NW • Sunnyside – 1320 5 Av NW • Roxboro/Rideau Park/Parkhill – 4013 Stanley Rd SW • Elbow Park – 800 34 Av SW • Ramsay Community Centre 1136 8 St SE • Windsor Park – 5304 6 St SW • Westmount – Louise Dean School 120 23 St NW • Bridgeland – 917 Centre Av NE • Bonnybrook – Ogden Legion; 2625 78th Ave SE Residents are asked to visit one of the re-entry information centres PRIOR to accessing their residence for important information that will support them in self-assessing their home and provide guidance on next steps. Once check-in and re-entry information has been received from one of the centres, residents may proceed to their residence. If the road and sidewalk to home is dry, residents may proceed to enter their home. If there is no flood water visible upon entry, residents are asked to inspect their basement for water. If there is water in the basement above electrical outlets, leave your home immediately and advise your community re-entry information centre. If there is no water in the basement or if water is below electrical outlets, residents may proceed with their self-assessment as directed by re-entry information centres. Self-assessment will include identification of critical services still required. If a need is identified, residents should post an 8.5” x 11” notice in their window with bold writing identifying the need. One piece of paper should be used per item. Writing should be bold so that it can be clearly seen from the street. Critical needs include: - Gas Needed - Electricity Needed - Water Pumping Needed Building owners will be provided more information specific to assessment process for multi-family units later today. Please be advised that needs may vary from house to house. City staff will address needs identified as quickly as possible but ask the public for their patience in coming days as work on full restoration proceeds. City staff and other resources as required will be available in communities to support residents with questions. We thank everyone for their continued cooperation as we work to return citizens to their homes and businesses as quickly and as safely as possible.
