On Friday, May 28, 2021 the Fiscal Year 2022 President’s Budget was released, and included $6,750,000 for San Rafael Channel Dredging. On July 2, 2021 the City sent a letter to all San Rafael Channel (Canal) waterfront property owners with an update on dredging and the Umbrella Permitting process, given that the Channel was now awarded $6,75m towards dredging in the 2022 President’s budget.
All private dock owners: please review these images. If you have not yet registered, please verify whether or not you would like to be included on the 10-year maintenance dredging permits.
- Property owners wanting to participate in the Umbrella Permit can still sign up by filling out the online form at cityofsanrafael.org/dredging
