<br />~ROJECT BENErlTS <br /> <br />Upon completion or the proposed plan-or-improvements, Mesa County <br />will enjoy the rollowing benerits: <br /> <br />Floodprone lands along the south side or the river will <br />be protected to the IO-year rlood level. <br /> <br />All businesses and residences on the north side or the <br />river will be protected to the IOO-year rlood level. <br /> <br />The river will be stabilized in its present alignment. <br /> <br />Existing channel <br />increased. <br /> <br />capacity will <br /> <br />be <br /> <br />stabilized <br /> <br />or <br /> <br />Public utilities will be protected rrom rlood risks. <br /> <br />Emergency rlood protection measures will be maximized. <br /> <br />The new Redlands Parkway will no longer be threatened by <br />river bank erosion. <br /> <br />Annual expenditures ror rlood damage repair in this area <br />will be reduced. <br /> <br />Opportunity <br />programs will <br /> <br />to expand the <br />be arrorded. <br /> <br />communities <br /> <br />recreational <br /> <br />~~eOMM~NO.TIQNI <br /> <br />The study reach has been subject to severe rlooding and bank <br />erosion during the 1983 and 1984 spring snowmelt runorr. This <br />rlooding posed serious threats to the newly constructed and <br />desperately needed Redlands Parkway. Damage was also experienced <br />to public improvements in the Connected Lakes Park. <br /> <br />The opportunity now exists to install rlood and erosion control <br />measures which ~ill mitigate ruture damage risks~ <br /> <br />Engineering is presently being perrormed to detail the project <br />elements and prepare construction documents. These proposed <br />project elements should be perrormed berore the next rlood event <br />to prevent additional stream deterioration. <br />
