East Palo Alto to request $2.7 million from state for levee repairs

Thursday night is set to make a move that will allow the city to request $2.7 million from the state to repair a failing levee.
City officials declared a state of emergency on Wednesday in the wake of the recent flooding of the San Francisquito Creek, and the City Council is expected to ratify the declaration at its meeting tonight. [link to www.ktvu.com]
