Additional presentations include an overview of the “Gabilan to Santa Cruz Mountains Landscape Linkage” project\, as well as an invitation for public engagement with a project in the lower watershed: “Improving water system resilience to climate change with levee setback to create multiple benefits.” \n**There is no cost to attend.
