Grant Programs 

Basement Flooding Grant Program

During 2010 (predominantly since June 2010), the City of Brantford experienced a number of extreme storm events.  As a result, on August 23, 2010 Council passed a resolution supporting the new City of Brantford Basement Flooding Prevention Grant Program (BFPGP).

The program will be administered through the City Clerk’s Department through the Risk Management Division.

The City of Brantford Basement Flooding Prevention Grant Program (BFPGP) provides one-time grants of up to $3,000 to residential homeowners who have documented storm or sanitary sewer back-ups as a result of sewer surcharging. The BFPGP is based on compassionate grounds and is not considered an admission of liability on the part of the City of Brantford.
