Join our Annual General Meeting (AGM) to re-establish our Lower Clutha liaison group!

Lower Clutha flood protection and drainage scheme liaison group will act as an informal committee that will work with us on the Lower Clutha Flood Protection and Drainage Scheme – this scheme helps reduce flood risks in the Lower Clutha, including the townships of Balclutha, Kaitangata and Stirling. 

This meeting will be held:

In this AGM we’ll be discussing things like: 

  • Flood scheme report, including details on future investment and maintenance
  • Appointing liaison group members from a list of nominees. 

Light refreshments will be available. 

Feel free to come and learn more about the Lower Clutha Flood Protection and Drainage Scheme and the new liaison group – and get involved! 

See you there.
