That’s the name of the flood control project that’s going to help with our flooding. Our part of the county north of Edinburg is a low spot. Flooding has always been a problem here. The drain will be sixty-three miles long collecting and draining water all the way from Edinburg Lake to the Gulf. We’re at the Edinburg Lake end of it.
This project has been in the works for thirty years, but it couldn’t get any funding until now. Phase One of the Raymondville Drain project just got started in 2017. We can see progress on it as we drive in and out of our neighborhood.
So it started in 2017. It’s a five-phase project. I wonder what the completion date is. I wonder if it starts to provide any benefit to our neighborhood at any intermediate stage. The only thing I can find on Google is about phase one. As far as Google knows, it’s a one-phase project. We in our neighborhood would like to know more. I guess time will tell.
