Situation at Little Red River Park ‘deteriorating’
Little Red River Park continues to “deteriorate” as parts of the park remain underwater, according to Prince Albert Mayor Greg Dionne.
Dionne toured the park Monday with other members of council, and he said they were surprised to see how much the park had deteriorated in just two days.
“Two days ago, when we toured the Little Red, there was a power pole along the far bank and that was, and that’s why we had to cut power to Little Red. And it was four feet up the bank. It’s now four feet in the water,” Dionne said after Monday evening’s council meeting.
River levels are expected to be at a one-in-30-year event, and could rise up to two metres on Thursday.
