In 2013 the Town of Raymond experienced overland flooding that overwhelmed our existing stormwater infrastructure. Following the flood, a 1.6km drainage ditch and berm was designed to divert 271 hectares of overland runoff from the County of Warner into Corner Lake, which is part of the Raymond Irrigation District's infrastructure. Due to the increased volume being diverted into their system, additional control stations were installed to divert water through the Raymond Golf Course. The existing capacity of the natural golf course drain as well as the development of 5 additional ponds within the course greatly enhanced our overall ability to redirect and retain stormwater within the community. We received $1,473,000 in Alberta Community Resilience Program funding as well as $545,343 in New Building Canada National and Regional Project funding. Raymond's contribution was $320,432 for a total project budget of $2,338,775.
