Nat Rally Dinner Venue to go under water
From today's news
"Mannum businesses Pretoria Hotel, Deja Vu Ski Shop, Mannum Anchorage, Forty Four on Randell and Mannum Old Wares set to go under in floods.
Businesses stuck on the wrong side of a temporary levee bank set to divide Mannum’s main street are clearing out their shops and shutting the doors.
Mapping of the Mid Murray Council’s temporary levee bank, made public on Monday evening, reveals the Mannum Caravan Park, much of Mary Ann Reserve and the Mannum Rowing Club would be protected by the temporary wall.
However, the businesses unable to be protected include the iconic Pretoria Hotel, the Deja Vu Ski Shop, the Mannum Anchorage, Forty Four on Randell and Mannum Old Wares - a business in the historic old butter factory.
Mid Murray Council chief executive officer Ben Scales said the levee banks would be built to withstand flows of 250GL following the increasing flow projections reaching 175GL with a moderate chance of 200GL."
