Butte CountyMulti-Jurisdictional All HazardPre-Disaster Mitigation PlanMarch 2007Butte County’s boundaries became fixed in 1856. Recent population growth continues toincrease and was at approximately 11.6 percent from 1990 to 2000, compared 13.6percent for California (U.S. Census Bureau, 2003). According to the Butte CountyGeneral Plan, migration from California’s metropolitan areas is expected to continue andwould represent the largest part of the County population growth in coming years. TheCity of Chico anticipates that growth in the urban area would move toward the northeastand southeast, as infill opportunities become limited and as Greenline policies restrictgrowth to the west (Butte County Master Environmental Assessment, 1996).A small percentage of land in Butte County is devoted to urban uses, while the majorityof Butte County’s land uses include agriculture, timber, and grazing. According to theButte County 2005 land use zoning data, all of the watersheds in Butte County, except forthe Lake Oroville/Upper Feather River watershed, have the greatest land use inagriculture (See the following figure from Butte County’s Flood Mitigation Plan, January2006).The relatively minimal reported damages and loss of life attributed to flooding over thepast 25 years in Butte County indicates that the current land use management practices inButte County have proven effective. However, increasing development and populationgrowth will require disciplined land use management practices to ensure that urbanizationof land protected by levees does not occur and is not allowed to exacerbate the affects offlooding in other areas.33
