ROSEVILLE, Calif. — A significant winter storm arrives Wednesday bringing heavy rain to the Roseville area. The wind is a big concern in the valley with gusts nearing 60 mph.
Helen Dyda, a spokesperson for the city of Roseville told ABC10 Roseville and FEMA have invested $32 million since the 1980s to improve infrastructure to control floods.
As a result, Roseville has the highest FEMA flood protection rating in the nation.
"Less than 7% of the city is within a floodplain, most of which is undeveloped open space. This means a lower flood risk for hundreds of structures," Dyda wrote in an email to ABC10.
