As part of the Tidal Flooding Shoreline Protection Project, Sites 6 and 13 are designed to develop living shoreline elements

When deemed feasible, utilize living shoreline and natural system strategies to strengthen coastal resilience and mitigate coastal flooding damage. Conduct an assessment of the coastal areas in the City, including the beach, intracoastal, lakes, and canals, to determine suitable application of living shoreline in lieu of or in addition to seawall structures.
