| New Lyon Creek culvert |
The project has been selected to be featured in the Take Winter By Storm media campaign, a public-private partnership to raise community awareness of hazardous weather and help protect lives and property.
The Lyon Creek Flood Mitigation Project is a nearly $7 million project completed with funding from the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA), the Washington State Department of Transportation, and the King County Flood Control District.
King 5 TV did a news segment on the project, which shows footage of past flooding events with people boating on Bothell Way. Fire Chief Jim Torpin reminisces about the year when a stream of water appeared at the LFP Fire Station. Firefighters opened all the big doors and just let the stream flow through the station.
