Hilda fire victims petitioning Cypress County for changes
DUNMORE, AB – Land owners affected by the Hilda wildfire made a presentation at Cypress County Council on Tuesday afternoon, asking for supports both provincially and regionally.
Members of the Hilda and Community Association were joined by Cypress-Medicine Hat MLA Drew Barnes to outline their requests one month following the 20,000 acre blaze.
On October 17, a wildfire spread through the Hilda area which was fanned by winds well over 100 kilometres per hour.
