Marinwood Village/Dixie School Bus Yard in FEMA flood zone

Just when you thought it couldn't get worse....

According to the 2009 FEMA Flood Zone Map. Fema Map home page  , over half of the Dixie School Bus Yard and parts of Marinwood Plaza appear to be on or next to the Miller Creek Flood Zone.

Aren't there significant restrictions to building in a flood zone?   Why isn't this fact public?


The Marinwood Village site appears very troubling for housing.  It has toxic chemicals, it is located next to a freeway with significant health hazards, two high powered microwave farms are located in the Southeast corner of the property and a 16 foot retaining wall will have to be built for the tenant and we may need a ladder truck for fighting fires in the multistory structures.  Of course the issues of school crowding, pollution, traffic, parking, strain on government services, and their 55 year tax free existance at the expense of the community won't be going away either.

It appears that Bridge Housing has some significant "selling" to do.
