Our contractor, partners, and Technical Working Group have been working to identify, define, analyze, and rank elements to reduce flood risk and restore habitat. Once the elements have been evaluated, they will be packaged into alternatives to be modeled to further flood protection benefits. We anticipate the Alternatives Memorandum, which explains the process for selecting elements and packaging into alternatives for modeling, will be posted to the website and ready for public review the first week of May. The Memorandum and its findings will be presented at a public meeting of the Flood Control Zone #1 Advisory Board on May 7th, 6:30-8:30 p.m., at the Novato Fire Protection District Board Room, 7025 Redwood Blvd. Meeting materials will be posted to the Program website as soon as they are available. Once public review is completed, the contractor will begin the modeling process, which will take most of the summer. A second community meeting will be scheduled this winter to review modeling results.
