MERRITT — The City’s Claybanks RV Park, on the banks of the Coldwater River, was devastated from the November 2021 flood. The Recreation Center building, located at the back of the park, was destroyed. All of the underground utility infrastructure were compromised.

Since then thousands of loads of mud and debris were removed.

Plans to rebuild the campground were postponed until the Summer of 2022.

With the assistance of insurance-covered restoration contractors, remediation work was completed on the office trailer and living accommodations. The stand-alone restrooms and mechanical room were renovated. And the outside sheds were rebuilt. Insurance-covered civil engineering work was also required to deal with underground damage and ground stability.

As of Fall 2023, the park is undergoing the replacement of underground utilities. Work for the entire project is expected to be completed by Spring 2024.
