Resiliency is the ability to return to an original form after being impacted or the ability to recover quickly from an adverse impact. In nature, it is considered a system’s ability to tolerate disturbances without collapsing. We use the word resiliency to discuss cities because our cities are facing, and will continue to face, impacts related to a rapidly changing climate and sea level rise. Resiliency in the context of the City of Hollywood means creating the physical infrastructure and cultural practices that allow us to hold the form of our City while adapting to changing environmental conditions, such as higher tides. Resiliency means that while the physical environment changes, the City remains a viable and attractive place to live, work, and play.
