Project Overview
Broward County, FL Land Use Plan Washington, NC Comprehensive Plan League City, TX Open Space & Sensitive Areas Plan
Ft. Lauderdale Downtown Area Framework Plan
• Land use planning is key to mitigation. • Communities adopt multiple plans that affect mitigation.
• Integration of mitigation in local plans can significantly affect future vulnerability.

Project Objectives
• Develop resilience scorecards to:
• Assess the degree to which
the network of plans targets areas most vulnerable
• Evaluate the coordination of local plans
Physical Vulnerability and Plan Policy Scores by District – Washington, NC

Resilience is “the ability to prepare and plan for, absorb, recover from, and more successfully adapt to adverse events” (National Academies 2012, p. 1)
