Project Title:
Quake River Region 3:  Property Acquisition Project 1
Project Location:
Northeastern Adversity, AS, in the subdivision of Hillcrest, on both
sides of Hurricane Way from the intersection of Hurricane Way and Route 32 to the
intersection of Hurricane Way and Water Street, and following Water Street to its
intersection with Puddle Street.
Brief Project Description:
The proposed project is a property acquisition project to
remove affected property owners from harm’s way on a voluntary basis.  Approximately,
100 properties in two residential neighborhoods and one business district were flooded to
some degree during the 1998 flood.  This project proposes to acquire and demolish 54
residential properties located in the Hillcrest area as described above.  (Relocation will be
considered on a case-by-case basis.)  All properties in this area sustained over 50-percent
damage in the 1998 floods, or are located in the floodway or the 100-year floodplain and
have sustained at least 10-percent damage in at least 3 other floods over the past 30
years.  By acquiring the proposed properties, the City will remove flood-prone homes from
the area, thereby eliminating health and safety risks for property owners and future rescue
workers.  In addition, the project will eliminate the need to provide emergency rescue
services, flood insurance, and federal disaster assistance in the future.

Estimated Total Cost:
$4,500,000
