Napa County prepares to resume flood control work to protect Napa
Amid a drought, Napa County is preparing to protect more than 2,000 city of Napa properties from the next flood. The county learned earlier this year that the stalled Napa River flood control project will receive $48.3 million in federal funds. That has local flood control officials talking about the final round of projects. Step one has been meeting with officials from the federal partner, the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, by Zoom. Four flood control projects totaling about $94 million are to be done with a mixture of federal, local, developer and grant money.
