Community Floodplain Solutions - Flood Hazard Studies

Now Online – New Lower Skykomish River Flood Hazard Studies Overview

Community Floodplain Solutions (CFS) is focusing efforts in Sky Valley to help lower the flood risk for residents, keep local farms viable, and restore habitat for threatened salmon. 

To help residents better understand the future risks associated with flood hazards along the Lower Skykomish River and what programs may provide relief, two short presentations have been recorded and are available online.

CFS partners are working now to identify properties that are eligible for incentive programs, including voluntary easement and acquisition opportunities. These partnerships are not possible without community input and willing participation.  

Landowners are encouraged to visit the webpage, view the presentations, and contact the CFS team to talk about specific findings near their property and what incentive options are available.

Virtual office hours go through July 13th, but you can reach out to them at any time at cfs.info@snoco.org.
