Stay involved!Process Overview: As a community of 7,000 residents situated between Richardson Bay and the coastal mountains, Sausalito is vulnerable to the impacts of sea level rise. Water rising along our 2.5 miles of shoreline will affect a wide range of our physical assets, policy decisions and programs including infrastructure, housing, circulation/transportation, land uses, and economic growth. To meet these present and future challenges, the City of Sausalito is embarking on a community-informed Shoreline Adaptation Plan that aspires to protect our community from surface and groundwater flooding due to sea level rise, enhance shoreline recreation, maintain vital transportation and utility corridors, provide continued Bay access for water-related businesses, and enhance marshes and beaches with nature-based solutions. The plan will include an update of existing vulnerability assessments, documentation of community visions for the future, and a framework that identifies near-term, medium-term and long-term adaptation opportunities along the shoreline.
Our community is a vital part of this plan, and we are committed to a robust community engagement process. The process will include pop-up events, focus group meetings, an online survey and community-wide workshops starting in 2024 and continuing through 2025.
Stay tuned here for updates on the process and how to get involved!Shoreline Adaption Plan MeetingDate and Time
