He has broken major stories about \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/135682/amid-a-series-of-vallejo-police-shootings-one-officers-name-stands-out\">police use of deadly force\u003c/a>, \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/10454955/racist-texts-prompt-sfpd-internal-investigation\">officer misconduct\u003c/a> and \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11712239/terrorist-or-troll-judge-to-weigh-whether-oakland-man-really-intended-to-attack-bay-area\">other\u003c/a> \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11221414/hayward-paid-159000-to-husband-of-retired-police-chief-documents-show\">high\u003c/a>-\u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/10622762/the-forgotten-tracking-two-homicides-in-san-francisco-public-housing\">profile\u003c/a> \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11624516/federal-agency-promoted-ranger-just-months-after-his-gun-was-stolen-and-used-in-steinle-killing\">cases\u003c/a>. He co-founded the \u003ca href=\"https://projects.scpr.org/california-reporting-project/\">California Reporting Project\u003c/a> in 2019 to obtain and report on previously confidential police internal investigations. The effort produced well over 100 original stories and changed the course of multiple criminal cases.\r\n\r\nHis work has been recognized with numerous journalism awards, including a national Edward R. Murrow award for several years of \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11688481/sfpd-officers-in-mario-woods-case-recount-shooting-in-newly-filed-depositions\">reporting\u003c/a> on the San Francisco Police shooting of Mario Woods. His \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/147854/half-of-those-killed-by-san-francisco-police-are-mentally-ill\">reporting\u003c/a> on police killings of people in psychiatric crisis was cited in amicus briefs before the U.S. Supreme Court.\r\n\r\nAlex now enjoys mentoring the next generation of journalists at KQED.",

His work has appeared on Newsweek.com, Slate.com, CBSNews.com, MotherJones.com, DailyKos.com and NPR’s web site. Fiore’s political animation has appeared on CNN, Frontline, Bill Moyers Journal, Salon.com and cable and broadcast outlets across the globe.\r\n\r\nBeginning his professional life by drawing traditional political cartoons for newspapers, Fiore’s work appeared in publications ranging from the Washington Post to the Los Angeles Times. In the late 1990s, he began to experiment with animating political cartoons and, after a short stint at the San Jose Mercury News as their staff cartoonist, Fiore devoted all his energies to animation.\r\nGrowing up in California, Fiore also spent a good portion of his life in the backwoods of Idaho. It was this combination that shaped him politically. Mark majored in political science at Colorado College, where, in a perfect send-off for a cartoonist, he received his diploma in 1991 as commencement speaker Dick Cheney smiled approvingly.\r\nMark Fiore was awarded the Pulitzer Prize for political cartooning in 2010, a Robert F. Kennedy Journalism Award in 2004 and has twice received an Online Journalism Award for commentary from the Online News Association (2002, 2008). Fiore has received two awards for his work in new media from the National Cartoonists Society (2001, 2002), and in 2006 received The James Madison Freedom of Information Award from The Society of Professional Journalists.",

Most were able to return to their homes, but Mariano is one of many San Jose residents experiencing long-term displacement. According to Catholic Charities, the lead agency in providing long-term services to flood victims, about 153 people are homeless, many living in hotels, temporary apartments or shelters.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>‘I’m Coming Up on That Last Domino’\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Like many residents, Mariano was teetering well before the flood. In the 11 years she lived on the bottom floor of her triplex, the rent had gone from $850 a month to $1,295 a month. Between selling art and her disability check, Mariano barely brings in $2,000 a month.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Then there are the hardships you can’t put into numbers. Mariano’s mom died a few years ago, and her husband had a stroke and had to move in with his parents. And then Mariano was diagnosed with kidney disease. She’s now on dialysis three times a week.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I feel like there’s a set of dominoes. And I don’t mean to be dark, but I’m coming up on that last domino,” she says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>After the flood, there was an outpouring. People gave money and landlords offered temporary housing.

Floodwaters were the deepest there, and a sewage pumping station that serves the neighborhood was inundated and knocked out of service.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>City officials say they expect the bill for repairs to flooded property to be in the tens of millions of dollars.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>On KQED’s \u003cem>Forum\u003c/em> program Thursday morning, San Jose Mayor Sam Liccardo said the city needs to work with the Santa Clara Valley Water District, which operates Anderson Reservoir, to find out why the available streamflow data for Coyote Creek failed to alert officials to the potential for widespread flooding.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“There are some technical issues that need to be resolved, and we need to figure quickly, because I know rains will continue this season,” Liccardo said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Jim Fiedler, the water district’s chief operating officer, also appeared on \u003cem>Forum\u003c/em>. He disputed suggestions that his agency was responsible for stream conditions near Rock Springs that some city officials have said may have contributed to flooding there.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The particular stretch around one of those areas in question is property that’s not owned by the water district,” Fiedler said. “The area by Rock Springs in fact is owned by the city of San Jose. In fact, much of the stream land … unless there’s been improvements made over the years, are not owned by the district, so we don’t regularly maintain those.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Update, 5:10 p.m. Wednesday:\u003c/strong> City officials say they’re going house to house in neighborhoods inundated by floodwaters late Tuesday and early Wednesday to assess the extent of damage and decide when residents can return home.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Fire Department and other city crews are also pumping water out of mobile home parks and other areas where water that surged outside the banks of Coyote Creek has not receded naturally.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Although the city has issued \u003ca href=\"http://sanjoseca.gov/DocumentCenter/View/66339\" target=\"_blank\">a checklist\u003c/a> of procedures for residents when they return to flooded homes, officials still haven’t said when the 14,000 people forced to leave their homes will be able to return.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“There will be people allowed to return tonight,” said Dave Sykes, director of the city’s emergency operations center. Those areas cleared for residents to return would be posted on the city’s website, he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Most of those evacuated were from three areas, the city said:\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli>Mobile home parks near Old Oakland Road: South Bay Mobile Home Park, Golden Wheel, and River Bend Mobile Home Park\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Neighborhoods near Williams Street Park\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Rock Springs neighborhood\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003cp>Assistant Fire Chief Robert Sapien said continuing concern about water that had been contaminated as it flowed the 30 miles from over-full Anderson Reservoir to San Francisco Bay was cited as the chief reason the mandatory evacuation order was still in place.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The water between Anderson Lake to the end point of the bay in San Jose means it has traveled through every product source available between those two points,” Sapien said. “That includes vehicle fuels, oils, any homes that may have had pesticides, any sewage backups that may have occurred, anything that was in the creekways.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sapien advised anyone who comes into contact with the water to wash thoroughly.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Other developments:\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli>The city said it would maintain emergency shelters at Evergreen High School and James Lick High School.

Donations can be made through the San Jose mayor’s office — or \u003ca href=\"http://www.sjmayor.org\" target=\"_blank\">http://www.sjmayor.org\u003c/a> — or the Silicon Valley Community Foundation — or \u003ca href=\"https://www.siliconvalleycf.org/sjflood\" target=\"_blank\">https://www.siliconvalleycf.org/sjflood\u003c/a>.\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Update, 12:20 p.m.:\u003c/strong> San Jose officials say residents forced to leave their homes late Tuesday and early Wednesday by inundation along Coyote Creek should not return immediately because of concern about contaminated floodwater.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The water is not safe,” Mayor Sam Liccardo said during a media briefing Wednesday morning. “There is contamination in this water, and the contamination runs the gamut” from gasoline and oil to raw sewage.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It is not safe for people to go into the water to go back to their homes,” Liccardo said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He added that the city was looking at whether it had done enough to alert residents along the path of the creek, which overflowed because of flood releases from the Santa Clara County Water District’s Anderson Reservoir, that they might have to evacuate their homes.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“If the first time that a resident is aware that they need to get out of a home is when they see a firefighter in a boat, then clearly there’s been a failure,” Liccardo said. “We are assessing what it is that happened that led to that failure.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The mayor said about 400 residents had been rescued from their homes by emergency crews in boats.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>City officials expressed uncertainty about exactly why the flooding happened when and where it happened. From \u003ca href=\"http://www.mercurynews.com/2017/02/22/san-jose-flood-update-mandatory-evacuations-expand-overnight-about-14000-affected/\" target=\"_blank\">the San Jose Mercury News account\u003c/a> of their remarks:\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>Assistant City Manager Dave Sykes said the breach of the creek Tuesday morning in the Rock Springs neighborhood near Kelley Park “happened at a flow level much below the capacity of the channel.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“That’s the issue we need to investigate,” Sykes said. “We were not anticipating flows to come out of the channel at that time. So we need to figure out what went on. Were there blockages? What were the issues that contributed to flows coming out of the channel at that point?”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sykes later added: “We weren’t expecting to have issues at Rock Springs for many, many hours, and we certainly weren’t expecting Rock Springs to be the first place we had issues.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>San Jose Mayor Sam Liccardo said “clearly there was a failure” leading to the unprecedented flooding that left some homes in nearly eight feet of water.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>One failure, according to the mayor, is the city was told by the Santa Clara Valley Water District that the area wouldn’t flood unless water flow topped 7,400 cubic feet per second. But waters began creeping into neighborhoods well before that level.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“What we’re learning is the data’s wrong and we need to understand why that is,” Liccardo told this news organization following a press conference Wednesday. “Obviously that’s something we need to undertake in partnership with other agencies that have the experts. We don’t have the hydrologists. They do.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Rachael Gibson, the district’s emergency operations center spokeswoman, said that model was based on “best available data,” and hydrologists were analyzing flow rates Wednesday afternoon. They did not immediately know what rate was reached on Tuesday and Wednesday.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Gibson added that other factors are tough or impossible to predict, such as blockages in the creek that could affect capacity.\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Original post:\u003c/strong> Thousands of San Jose residents and city officials are facing a massive cleanup after overnight flooding along Coyote Creek prompted emergency evacuations in neighborhoods along the stream.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Although waters were slowly receding by dawn Wednesday, flooding was still a concern.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Although the rain has largely stopped, flooding is continuing along Coyote Creek as reservoirs continue to spill and creek flow is extremely high,” said Cheryl Wessling, a spokeswoman for the city’s Emergency Operations Center, in an email early Wednesday.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Those high flows, which flooded the Rock Springs neighborhood southeast of downtown Tuesday afternoon, led to a 12:15 a.m. evacuation order covering about 14,000 people.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The city set up evacuation centers at the Mayfair and Shirakawa community centers, overnight shelters at Evergreen Valley and James Lick high schools, and winter warming centers at four library branches.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The inundation follows weeks of storms that have slammed the region. The last system in the most recent series of storms, on Presidents Day, hit the South Bay with particularly heavy rain.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The deluges have filled Anderson Reservoir to capacity, causing water to rush down the dam’s spillway and into Coyote Creek. The stream flows through neighborhoods in South San Jose, then east of downtown to the bayside community of Alviso.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>High water flooded a wide area southeast, east and northeast of downtown and prompted the 12:15 a.m. evacuation order for the area adjacent to Coyote Creek north of Interstate 280, west of U.S. 101 and south of Highway 237.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Flooding forced the closure of more than a dozen roads, including both directions of 101 between I-280 and I-880.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Santa Clara Valley Water District officials said Wednesday morning that their crews had completed temporary repairs to Coyote Canal, work that was aimed at preventing more flooding onto 101.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The expanded evacuation orders early Wednesday came hours after fire crews rushed to rescue hundreds of people in the city’s Rock Springs neighborhood, where homes and cars were inundated under several feet of water.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11328231\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003ca href=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/02/sjevacuationmap.jpg\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-11328231\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/02/sjevacuationmap-800x1035.jpg\" alt=\"City of San Jose map showing area where evacuations were ordered after Coyote Creek flooded. \" width=\"800\" height=\"1035\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/02/sjevacuationmap-800x1035.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/02/sjevacuationmap-160x207.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/02/sjevacuationmap-960x1242.jpg 960w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/02/sjevacuationmap-240x311.jpg 240w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/02/sjevacuationmap-375x485.jpg 375w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/02/sjevacuationmap-520x673.jpg 520w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/02/sjevacuationmap.jpg 989w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003c/a>\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">City of San Jose map showing area where evacuations were ordered after Coyote Creek flooded.\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>“I don’t have specific numbers for other water rescue operations, but I can tell you in my career this is probably the biggest,” San Jose Fire Department Capt.

So we need to figure out what went on. Were there blockages? What were the issues that contributed to flows coming out of the channel at that point?”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sykes later added: “We weren’t expecting to have issues at Rock Springs for many, many hours, and we certainly weren’t expecting Rock Springs to be the first place we had issues.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>San Jose Mayor Sam Liccardo said “clearly there was a failure” leading to the unprecedented flooding that left some homes in nearly eight feet of water.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>One failure, according to the mayor, is the city was told by the Santa Clara Valley Water District that the area wouldn’t flood unless water flow topped 7,400 cubic feet per second. But waters began creeping into neighborhoods well before that level.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“What we’re learning is the data’s wrong and we need to understand why that is,” Liccardo told this news organization following a press conference Wednesday. “Obviously that’s something we need to undertake in partnership with other agencies that have the experts. We don’t have the hydrologists. They do.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Rachael Gibson, the district’s emergency operations center spokeswoman, said that model was based on “best available data,” and hydrologists were analyzing flow rates Wednesday afternoon. They did not immediately know what rate was reached on Tuesday and Wednesday.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Gibson added that other factors are tough or impossible to predict, such as blockages in the creek that could affect capacity.\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Original post:\u003c/strong> Thousands of San Jose residents and city officials are facing a massive cleanup after overnight flooding along Coyote Creek prompted emergency evacuations in neighborhoods along the stream.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Although waters were slowly receding by dawn Wednesday, flooding was still a concern.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Although the rain has largely stopped, flooding is continuing along Coyote Creek as reservoirs continue to spill and creek flow is extremely high,” said Cheryl Wessling, a spokeswoman for the city’s Emergency Operations Center, in an email early Wednesday.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Those high flows, which flooded the Rock Springs neighborhood southeast of downtown Tuesday afternoon, led to a 12:15 a.m. evacuation order covering about 14,000 people.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The city set up evacuation centers at the Mayfair and Shirakawa community centers, overnight shelters at Evergreen Valley and James Lick high schools, and winter warming centers at four library branches.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The inundation follows weeks of storms that have slammed the region. The last system in the most recent series of storms, on Presidents Day, hit the South Bay with particularly heavy rain.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The deluges have filled Anderson Reservoir to capacity, causing water to rush down the dam’s spillway and into Coyote Creek. The stream flows through neighborhoods in South San Jose, then east of downtown to the bayside community of Alviso.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>High water flooded a wide area southeast, east and northeast of downtown and prompted the 12:15 a.m. evacuation order for the area adjacent to Coyote Creek north of Interstate 280, west of U.S. 101 and south of Highway 237.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Flooding forced the closure of more than a dozen roads, including both directions of 101 between I-280 and I-880.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Santa Clara Valley Water District officials said Wednesday morning that their crews had completed temporary repairs to Coyote Canal, work that was aimed at preventing more flooding onto 101.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The expanded evacuation orders early Wednesday came hours after fire crews rushed to rescue hundreds of people in the city’s Rock Springs neighborhood, where homes and cars were inundated under several feet of water.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11328231\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003ca href=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/02/sjevacuationmap.jpg\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-11328231\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/02/sjevacuationmap-800x1035.jpg\" alt=\"City of San Jose map showing area where evacuations were ordered after Coyote Creek flooded. \" width=\"800\" height=\"1035\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/02/sjevacuationmap-800x1035.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/02/sjevacuationmap-160x207.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/02/sjevacuationmap-960x1242.jpg 960w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/02/sjevacuationmap-240x311.jpg 240w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/02/sjevacuationmap-375x485.jpg 375w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/02/sjevacuationmap-520x673.jpg 520w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/02/sjevacuationmap.jpg 989w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003c/a>\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">City of San Jose map showing area where evacuations were ordered after Coyote Creek flooded.\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>“I don’t have specific numbers for other water rescue operations, but I can tell you in my career this is probably the biggest,” San Jose Fire Department Capt.
