City hosts community webinar on Monday from 5 p.m. to 7 p.m, Nov.18
San Diego leaders Thursday asked for public input on several coastal resilience projects as the threat of rising seas could shape the future of the city’s coast.
San Diego recently released a draft Coastal Resilience Master Plan with multiple projects for public review.
“Our shorelines are increasingly vulnerable, and the Coastal Resilience Master Plan will implement the most cost-efficient, natural solutions for long-term viability,” said Council President Pro Tem and Environment Committee Chair Joe LaCava. “Backed by science and community input, these projects are designed to adapt our shoreline from the effects of sea level rise while protecting our coastal neighborhoods.”
San Diego has more than 17 miles of coastline. Since 1970, sea levels have risen around six inches and are estimated to rise another nine inches by 2050, a city statement reads.
