Camden Harbor Resilience Planning Community Survey

Introduction

Camden was awarded its third Community Resilience Partnership Community Action Grant by the Governor’s Office of Policy Innovation and the Future (GOPIF) over a year ago to help fund resilience planning for Camden’s Inner Harbor as well as a Shore and Harbor Planning Grant from the Maine Coastal Program.

The select board awarded the contract (07/02/24 meeting) to Richardson & Associates/WSP to develop a harbor resilience roadmap in partnership with the Camden community. Their work will be based on current and projected sea-level rise and storm surge data.

The Oct. 15 event is the first of a fall/winter series of public meetings/workshops. This session is intended to provide background on the project, preliminary site analysis, and an outline for the community-based planning process. We encourage all Camden residents and interested parties to participate in the visioning process. We believe community input early in the planning process is critically important.
