The Mission Possible Recovery Foundation Closes High River Rodeo Grounds

The Mission Possible Recovery Foundation is all set to close its site at the High River rodeo grounds from Friday onwards. The organization was created in a bid to help flood victims. It will, however, continue to take donations during the rebuilding phase of the town.

An official said that Mission Possible will not be responsible, by any means, for anyone claiming to be acting on its behalf in the town.

He added that the Mission Possible will be involved in future to ensure the town's recovery. Town officials are engaged in tackling a list of 30 to 40 new flood mitigation projects to prevent High River from any future disasters.

A council meeting was conducted on Monday to see a list of strategies. Councillors gave approval to six strategies as of now to allow them to move into the final design stages. These are slated to be implemented by high-flow season of next year.

Reiley McKerracher, manager of engineering for the Town of High River, said, "Some of the projects will have a huge number of hoops to jump through before we get to construction and building, and these ones were identified as probably the easiest of all of the projects we're looking at".
