  • Assessing Vulnerability
    3 Risk Assessment Muscatine County Hazard Mitigation Plan Assessing Vulnerability: Overview This section analyzes the county's vulnerability to natural and man-made hazards in terms of the types and numbers of existing and future buildings, infrastructure, and critical facilities. The first part is a general profile of Muscatine County that describes the county's characteristics and its historic development. Community Profile: Muscatine County, Iowa Geography and Land Use Muscatine County is located in east-central Iowa. The county is bounded by Cedar County to the north, Scott County on the northeast, the Mississippi River and Rock Island County, Illinois, on the east, Louisa County on the south, and Johnson County on the west. Muscatine is the largest city and the county seat. Other cities include West Liberty, Wilton, Nichols, Atalissa, Stockton, Fruitland, and Conesville. The soils in Muscatine County are nearly level, gently sloping (0-5 percent) prairie- derived soils developed from alluvium along the Cedar River and Wapsinonoc Creek valleys. The Mississippi River Valley soils are gently sloping to steep (2-25 percent) forest-derived soils developed from loess or pre-Wisconsin till. Separating these two valley soils are gently to strongly sloping (1-14 percent) prairie to forest-derived soils developed from loess. Predominantly, these soils are moderately-well to well-drained soils and do not contribute to the flooding conditions. The Cedar River travels across the western half of Muscatine County in a southwesterly direction where it joins the Iowa River just southwest of Muscatine County. The topography of Muscatine County is a predominantly broad expanse of relatively flat land along the Cedar and Mississippi Rivers.

  • City of Peekskill Section II. Inventory and Analysis
    SECTION II INVENTORY AND ANALYSIS A. EXISTING LAND AND WATER USES 1. Overview The CityofPeekskill is a denselypopulatedurban areaas is apparentbyexisting land and water use patterns. The 2000 Census indicated that the total city population is 22,441. Large areas of industrial use, private institutional uses, and public open space generally characterize the waterfront area. Scattered throughout the area are small pockets of general commercial, low density residential, warehouse and distribution uses, municipal uses and vacant land. A substantial amount of underutilized industrial land and several deteriorated properties exist throughout the waterfront planning area. The Peekskill Waterfront Revitalization Area canbe divided into two land use areas: 1) the waterfront areas along the HudsonRiver andAnnsville Creek and2) the inland areas that have a direct and significant impact but are not directly located on the coastal waters. Because existing uses influence the future use and development of the area, it is important to have an understanding ofthe existing land use patterns within the area. For the purpose ofthis study, the waterfront area may be divided into four planning areas: 1) Southern, 2) Central, 3) Northern and 4) Annsville Creek. By dividing the waterfront area, the City is able to develop more specific planning strategies and policies specific to the conditions and needs within each area. Existing land use patterns are presented on the attached maps. a. Southern Plannin2 Area - The Southern Planning Area begins on the west side ofLower South Street paralleling the Metro North railroad tracks at the City limits. The properties on the western side ofLower South Street and to the east ofthe railroad tracks are characterized by a concentration ofheavy industrial uses including utilities, manufacturing and outdoor storage (scrap metal, automobile and used machinery parts and contractors' materials and construction materials).
