Let’s pray they are right!🙏

The levees along the Raging River protect us from disastrous flooding. A recent study of the levees conducted by the King County Flood Control District assessed five levee systems for weaknesses, including the Raging River in Fall City. The study assessed flood risks for approximately 3,000 Fall City residents west of the Raging River levee. The study concluded that the probability of a levee breach is considered low (6.5% in a given year).

Hope everyone is staying safe out there. We are all bracing for the next Atmospheric River. Reach out to your neighbors in the flood zone and lend a helping hand or offer a high and dry respite from rising waters.

Visit the Road Services Department on SE 44th Pl. to get your sand bags.

With heavy rains comes and potential flooding in the forecast, did you know that sandbags are available for free for all King County residents?

Each sandbag distribution location may have different hours of availability and limits to the amount of sandbag materials you can take. Sandbag distribution information is also recorded on the King County Flood Warning Information Line: 206-296-8200 or 800-945-9263.

HELP PROTECT FALL CITY DRINKING WATER & THE SNOQUALMIE RIVER.
Join your Neighbors in requesting a temporary pause on permitting, clearing, grading, and construction activity for subdivision developments in the rural town of Fall City until the groundwater and environmental impact analysis ordered by the King County Hearing Examiner is completed.

It is a safeguard to ensure that King County and Taylor Development honor the Hearing Examiner’s decision that groundwater and river-impact analysis must be completed before any irreversible harm occurs to Fall City’s drinking water and the Snoqualmie River.

Clearing and grading has already begun!

Drivers in and around Fall City are constantly reminded to slow down, though it seems everyone has a story about a car racing through town, someone rolling through a stop sign, or drivers otherwise not obeying posted traffic laws. Like so many aspects of life in Fall City, road safety gets complicated due to the number of organizations responsible for keeping roads safe, as well as the growing population of the Snoqualmie Valley and increasing number of drivers coming through town every day.

Learn what’s being done to slow folks down in the December issue of Fall City Neighbors. Pick up a copy at the post office, library and businesses around town or read it online at: fallcity.org/community-1
