Eagles Flock at Leaf River — Site-Specific Floodplain Review Framework, Route-to-Safety Analysis, and Corridor-Scale Warning Concept

Developer-side memo on three integrated points: route-to-safety as a network problem (the Lagoon Drive limiting-link question, with timing tied to USGS gauge history rather than the City's published rapid-rise language); the condominium/site-plan pathway under the City's existing review track and Miss. Code §89-9-33; and the corridor-scale civic case — a possible Leaf-Bouie warning system with the Leaf and Bouie River Development District (HB1649, 2020) as a candidate funding and governance vehicle. Anchored to the USGS Hattiesburg gauge (02473000), 1974 record crest of 34.03 ft, potential public riverfront park component, proposed marina and boat-ramp concept, and Pinebelt Blueways access.
