CLIMATE RESILIENCE
As climate change intensifies, the Wharf District faces increasing challenges from flooding and extreme weather events.
Our commitment to climate resilience is reflected through a comprehensive approach that combines detailed flood mapping, a forward-thinking conceptual master plan, an accessible handbook designed to guide residents and stakeholders, and a new video. Together, these tools and resources raise awareness while educating the community about local flood risks and proactive strategies to safeguard our neighborhood. Together, we can empower the Wharf District to adapt, prepare, and thrive in the face of a changing climate.
