What happened

Some supportReported by 1 outlet

A firm in San Rafael conducted a levee study that identified flood risks for Belvedere and Tiburon. The City Council received a flood preparation report from city staff, the county, and Pacific Gas & Electric Co. on Monday, October 14, 2026, ahead of the predicted El Niño winter. Belvedere is currently working with the engineering firm to determine the maximum feasible elevation for temporary flood barriers.
