Get ready for a 200-year flood. With California locked in the grip of a three-year drought and coming off the driest year on record, Manteca’s elected leaders are expected tonight to move forward with the first step of a state mandated requirement that they identify areas prone to 200-year flooding and take steps to protect those areas. The Manteca City Council is considering approving spending $61,622 as its 50 percent share of retaining the firm of Peterson, Brustad, Inc. to develop a 200-year flood profile for the San Joaquin River as well as develop floodplain information for all areas protected by Reclamation District 17 levees.
