Town hall advises North Bay coastal zone residents on storm preparation

Septic systems "work because they leach water into the surrounding ground. If that ground is saturated, they don't work anymore." photo credit: KRCB News A landslide and high water on the Russian River near Forestville in February 2025. Road closures, evacuations, failed septic systems and landslides were some of the dire warnings covered in a West Marin El Nino town hall meeting this week in Point Reyes Station. The event Tuesday at the Dance Palace featured a panel of Marin County emergency preparedness officials and Supervisor Dennis Rodoni, who represents West Marin. "Our responsibility as a board is to make sure our communities have the resources they need," said Rodoni. "But government cannot do this work alone." Rodoni reminded residents that West Marin has unique risks that include flooding, wildfires, landslides, earthquakes and road closures. The best way to make choices about what actions to take is by signing up for advanced notices through the Nixle or AlertMarin apps, he said. In Sonoma County, residents can go to socoemergency.org to sign up for SoCoAlerts. "El Nino is not one storm that comes into our community, it is a season," said Steven Torrence, director of the Marin County Office of Emergency
