The Sacramento Bee also neglected to mention an important part of the process for removing the restrictive FEMA floodplain designation. Development can proceed in North Natomas under a less restrictive AR designation once SAFCA has meet certain milestones for percentage of funds appropriated, spent, and work completed. In other words, SAFCA does not have to complete 100 percent of the levee improvements before development may proceed.
