The SFCJPA’s Mission is to plan, manage, and coordinate flood risk reduction measures through the contributions of its member agencies and by establishing policy direction and central communications for Watershed, Creek, and Shoreline activities.

The SFCJPA’s objectives are to reduce the risk of flooding to protect people and property, preserve and enhance the environment, and create public amenities for enjoyment while promoting community awareness and participation in these processes.

The San Francisquito Creek, its tributaries and contributing land areas, flood plain, and shoreline are equitably and cooperatively managed to protect people and property, support and maintain a healthy natural resource system that reduces the risk of flooding, sustains healthy natural habitats, and offers opportunity for human respite and recreation.
