| Project Name: |
Fairground Channel Drainage Project |
| City/County: |
Vallejo, Solano County |
| Comment Period: |
2/20/2026 - 03/12/2026 |
| Project Description: |
The proposed Fairgrounds Channel Drainage Project aims to address existing flooding issues within the Solano360 Specific Plan area and along Coach Lane, particularly at the Newell Mobile Home Park. The project focuses on widening the existing Fairgrounds Channel, which currently experiences flooding due to offsite upstream runoff from Central Rindler Creek, South Rindler Creek, and Blue Rock Springs Creek. By widening and deepening the channel along its current alignment, the project will effectively alleviate flooding and improve the project's drainage capabilities to withstand a 100-year storm event. |
