The Village of Clinton is currently under an Evacuation Order due to the ongoing wildfire threat.
The safety of our residents, visitors, and emergency responders remains our highest priority. Everyone within the Village is required to leave the area immediately and follow the directions of emergency personnel. The order was issued as wildfire conditions changed rapidly and posed an immediate risk to public safety.
Residents who have a safe place to stay are encouraged to go there directly. If you do not have alternate accommodations, please proceed to the designated reception centre listed below.
