Western Region Town Hall Special Workshop on Levees Tomorrow

Concerns about the condition and stability of Upper Lake’s levee system have prompted the scheduling of a special workshop tomorrow evening at the Western Region Town Hall @ 5:30 pm. According to the LakeCountyNews, a feasibility study done last year includes the Middle Creek and Clover Creek diversion levees, the diversion structure, and the old Clover Creek closure structure in flood zone 8 or the Middle Creek flood Control Project, operated by the Lake County Watershed Protection District. The feasibility study shows the potential for breaches leading to significant flooding and damage to the historic town. It is hoped the meeting draws the attention of the board of supervisors.
