How can cities address chronic flooding while creating healthier, more vibrant communities? Jacksonville’s McCoys Creek project offers a compelling example of how community engagement, environmental restoration and resilient infrastructure can work together to deliver lasting benefits.
This webinar, hosted by NLC partner Black and Veatch, will discuss how the City of Jacksonville, Fla., partnered with residents and stakeholders to reimagine a flood-prone corridor as an asset that improves quality of life, reconnects neighborhoods and enhances environmental health. Through lessons learned, attendees will discover how community collaboration can help transform infrastructure projects from problem-solving initiatives into opportunities for broader community impact.
Speakers:
- Kay Ehas, CEO, Groundwork Jacksonville Inc.
