"But the levees protecting it - and the roughly 250,000 people who live there - are inadequate, the corps concedes."I strongly suggest that the Corps stop making such concessions since a Federal activist -- I mean, Judge -- has ruled that residents can sue them.

If they must rebuild it then do it in a less hazardous area (maybe further upstream?).
