Summary

A Phase 1 report for the Patagonia Regional Flood Control Project is posted on the Santa Cruz County Flood Control District webpage, and the committee said an updated flood map is required to reveal crossings and erosional risk areas not shown on current maps to guide future projects.

Allan Sanchez presented a Phase 1 feasibility report on the Patagonia Regional Flood Control Project and told the committee that the report is posted on the Santa Cruz County Flood Control District webpage.

Sanchez said the committee needs an updated flood map to identify risk areas—such as road crossings and erosion-prone banks—that are not shown on the county’s current map. He said that identifying those risks is a prerequisite to discussing future potential projects and prioritizing mitigation work.

Committee members were invited to post comments on the county webpage. The presentation was described as a foundational planning step; no formal funding approval or motion to advance specific projects was recorded during the meeting.
