rom the beginning, the City of Cedar Rapids and City Council have held a long-term commitment to protecting both the west and east sides of the Cedar River with permanent, comprehensive flood control, and securing the financial planning necessary to bring that commitment to reality. The City will continue advocating for flood control on both sides of the river, for all flood-impacted neighborhoods. To that end, a variety of work is underway in both the Time Check and Cedar Lake areas, the northern segment of our Flood Control System. Community amenities such as trails and gathering spaces are integrated throughout the system, as well as intentional transportation planning.
