Four Shore Coastal Resiliency
The four coastal communities of Clinton, Westbrook, Old Saybrook, and Fenwick are working together to develop a regional Coastal Resiliency Plan. This Plan will result in a comprehensive understanding of risks associated with sea level rise, a shared vision for the future, and the identification of strategies and projects to reduce risk and build community resilience.
To learn more about the development of the Coastal Resilience Plan, including the project schedule, please visit the About page. Visit the Get Involved page for upcoming events and to Share Your Story of how flooding and erosion have impacted you.
Coastal resilience is the ability of a community -- including the natural, social, economic, and infrastructure systems that define and support it -- to resist, absorb, recover from, and adapt to the effects of a natural hazard (e.g., sea level rise) in a timely and efficient manner, including through the preservation and restoration of essential structures and functions that provide a high quality of life for all residents and visitors.

Upcoming Events
The Project Team will present the Coastal Resiliency Plan at three public meetings, offering both in-person and virtual attendance options. These sessions will cover the Plan's purpose, existing conditions of the study area, vulnerable and high-risk areas in your community, and proposed resilience solutions. While virtual participation is available, in-person attendance is encouraged for better engagement. Each presentation will conclude with an opportunity for attendees to ask questions and provide comments, ensuring community involvement in this important initiative.
