Through a study funded by the Florida Department of Environmental Protection’s Resilient Coastlines Program, the City of Venice is working with Taylor Engineering to perform resilience planning. This project includes a vulnerability assessment for City infrastructure. This assessment consists of three analyses:

·         Exposure – the amount of contact an asset has with a source of stress

·         Sensitivity – the degree of impact and whether there are existing sources of stress; and

·         Adaptive capacity – the asset’s ability to adjust, repair or respond

After this assessment has been conducted, adaption and resilient strategies will be developed for at-risk structures.

We want to hear from you, the citizens of the City of Venice. Together we can create a more resilient future. Please assist us by completing brief Resilience Survey on Understanding Your Flood Risk. This survey can be found at: https://arcg.is/u05Hb.
