This forum will bring together state and local decision makers, municipal staff, and other interested parties working to address flooding, shoreline erosion and other coastal issues to share information on best practices, discuss challenges, identify opportunities to increase resilience, and enhance coordination across communities. You will hear from NY State, regional, and local partners about resilience initiatives, learn about new tools and resources, and local resilience projects. In the afternoon, there will be a guided walking tour of the resilience projects at Sands Point Preserve! More detailed information will be provided closer to the date.
