Communities are at the heart of the Coastal Master Plan and have an important role to play in its development

• • Convene technical and community advisory workgroups.

  • Develop a shared vision and collaborate with underrepresented communities.

  • Build capacity through outreach and training workshops with diverse partners.

Clearly understanding and conveying risks and vulnerability around the region is essential to project development and prioritization

• Create a suite of flood maps and analysis-ready data which will identify risks from sea level rise, storm surge, high tide flooding, and flooding from extreme rainfall events.

• Identify vulnerable and high-risk areas to inform proactive adaptation measures.

With input from community members and technical experts, feasible flood risk reduction projects will be evaluated and prioritized for inclusion in the plan.

• • Solicit ideas from the public and stakeholders.

  • Evaluate projects based on impact, equity, environmental outcomes, among other metrics.

  • Leverage innovative resources and tools, like nature-based solutions, to maximize co-benefits to communities and habitats.

The TBCMP will serve as a roadmap for our shared regional resilience priorities to guide investments.

• • Deliver a comprehensive plan detailing flood risks, prioritized projects, and adaptation pathways.

  • Develop an interactive dashboard for accessible data and visualizations.
