1. Coyote Creek Flood Protection Project Resolution of Necessity Delayed for Further Negotiations
The Board postponed approval of eminent domain proceedings against San Jose Unified School District properties needed for the Coyote Creek Flood Protection Project. The school district raised concerns about inadequate compensation (approximately one-third of estimated value), lack of indemnification for future flood damage, and the proposed wall bisecting an active elementary school field. The Board directed staff to continue negotiations and report back at the next meeting, while emphasizing the urgent timeline due to the Anderson Dam Stage 2 Diversion Tunnel project dependency.
