Wilmington residents can shape city’s response to flooding and coastal storms
WILMINGTON, N.C. (WECT) – The City of Wilmington is working with the North Carolina Division of Coastal Management to study how residents are affected by flooding, storms, and sea-level rise as part of the Resilient Coastal Communities Program (RCCP).
The city is inviting residents to attend an in-person event to learn more about RCCP on Wednesday, March 18, from 5 to 7 p.m. at the Skyline Center in Wilmington.
At the meeting, residents can:
- Learn what disaster resilience means for the City of Wilmington
- Learn about the Resilient Coastal Communities Program
- Share ideas, concerns, and local knowledge by taking the survey
- Find out how to continue making their voice heard during the project
For those unable to attend the in-person event, an online survey is currently available and accepting submissions.
