The Village has committed to reduce its carbon footprint and has signed the B.C. Climate Action Charter with the ultimate goal of becoming carbon neutral. The Local Government Climate Action Program (LGCAP) supports this goal and provides funding to local governments to pursue projects that ultimately reduce carbon production. Each year, the Village completes a survey that is intended to demonstrate action taken as well as to identify areas to address in the future. The 2025 Local Government Climate Action Program (LGCAP) Survey can be viewed here.

The Village of Warfield is pleased to advise that the Province of British Columbia has approved up to $350,000 through the Disaster Resilience and Innovation Funding (DRIF) program to support development of a Trail Creek Flood Mitigation Plan. This funding will allow the Village to build on the recently completed Trail Creek Floodplain Mapping and Flood Frequency Analysis work. The next phase will focus on identifying and evaluating practical options to reduce flood and erosion risks along the Trail Creek corridor, including risks to roads, culverts, private property, and important regional infrastructure. Trail Creek has experienced historical flooding and more recent high-water events, and the completed floodplain mapping confirms that climate change is expected to increase future flood risk. The Flood Mitigation Plan will help the Village better understand priority areas, assess potential solutions, engage with partners and stakeholders, and position the community for future infrastructure funding. This grant does not fund immediate construction. Rather, it provides the technical planning needed to identify cost-effective mitigation options and support future decisions by Council. The Village appreciates the Province’s support through the DRIF program and looks forward to advancing this important work for the benefit of Warfield and the broader region. DRIF…
