At the initial meeting held in January 2016, residents and business owners in Milford discussed types of coastal hazards the City is facing at the present time and will face in the future, and learned about the available methods of adapting to our changing coastal environment to become more resilient to tidal flooding, storm surges, sea level rise, and coastal erosion. 

At this next meeting, residents and business owners in Milford will learn more about the available methods of adapting and how they may be applied in Milford, and will be invited to review the City’s draft Coastal Resilience Plan for adapting to coastal risks over the long term, with an emphasis on protection of people, buildings, and the City’s infrastructure.
