How about the counties and state get their crap together and clear out all the debris in the creek bed?? Decades of neglect down there in a creek we used to be able to walk as children. It's too overgrown down there. The water flows fine if unobstructed by the dead trees shrubs and shopping carts.

Quite confused by all of the San Francisquito Creek studies that are going on. The JPA is studying one set of options, the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, USACE, another set of options and Stanford, a third set of options. The JPA staff is implies that they are directing this confusion, but they don't control the Army Corps or Stanford.
On December 23, 2016, U.S. Army Corps of Engineers issued a NOI "Notice of intent" to prepare an integrated Feasibility Study/Environmental Impact Statement (FS/EIS) for the San Francisquito Creek Flood Risk Management Project. Web Link Meanwhile, Stanford will soon decide what to do with Searsville, and it will interact significantly with any downstream plans. It's highly likely that Stanford will move faster that the JPA or the USACE in the next few years. Web Link
