Creative tweaks eyed for Cedar Rapids flood protection

Cedar Rapids planners push a creative redesign of the permanent flood control system near the Mott and Chelsea buildings on the Cedar River West Bank. The plan trims the levee height to about 9 feet with a fold-up wall, enhances river views, adds storage chambers and restrooms near McGrath Amphitheatre, and improves access for trucks and pedestrians with disabilities. The flood control committee supported about a dozen minor changes as City Council approval is sought, with a funding shortfall and a goal to complete the project in 3 to 4 generations.
