Dear San Anselmo and Ross Residents:
As many of you are aware, Marin County has been working to address flooding issues in the Ross Valley. A key part of our current effort is the potential removal of Building Bridge 2 (BB2) (also known as Creek Park Plaza) in downtown San Anselmo.
In order for this to happen Marin County was required to submit the Conditional Letter of Map Revision (CLOMR) application to FEMA in July. This application is an essential step in the process, allowing FEMA to review proposed changes to the floodplain and floodway boundaries before the project can move forward.
In the coming weeks, Flood Zone staff will be presenting the application at the Town Council meetings of the Towns of Ross and San Anselmo. We invite you to attend these upcoming meetings, where we will explain the CLOMR process and its impact on the community. These meetings will also provide an opportunity to learn about the next steps in flood mitigation efforts for Ross Valley.
-
August 14 – Town of Ross Town Council Meeting
-
August 21 – Flood Zone 9 Advisory Board Meeting
-
August 26 – Town of San Anselmo Town Council Meeting
Additionally, should you wish to send questions or comments, staff will be reviewing them and forwarding any relevant feedback related to the CLOMR application to FEMA and the local floodplain managers at the towns of Ross and San Anselmo. While FEMA’s CLOMR process does not specifically seek public comments as part of the review, we want to gather feedback on the completed CLOMR so it can be considered during their review process.
FEMA’s review period also allows for public access to the CLOMR application files, providing an opportunity for the community to review and engage with the project’s details.
All questions can be sent to: FloodInquiries@MarinCounty.Gov and you can find the CLOMR application at this link: https://flooddistrict.marincounty.gov/bb2-clomr/
We encourage your participation in the meetings and welcome your feedback as we continue to work towards reducing flood risks and improving the resilience of our community.
Thank you for staying engaged with these important efforts.
