For the next 16 months, the Strathmore MunicipWheatland County Council is seeking more information regarding the logistics of potentially providing a grant to help fund a waterline for Redland residents. Councillor Glenn Koester spoke at the May 3 regular council meeting on behalf of a delegation of residents from Redland. “The residents of Redland are asking the County to grant the Wheatland Regional Corporation (WRC) $75,000 … Wheatland County has granted WRC approximately $4 million in the past,” said Koester. “WRC is experienced in putting in (water) lines and maintaining them. WRC would own this line and maintain it. This is a one-time grant, so the residents can enjoy water.”
