    The Urban Land Institute’s Southeastern Coastal Development Forum helped advance conversations on how communities can better plan for long‑term resilience. Here are the team’s key takeaways: → Integrating national datasets with local community input improves modeling accuracy and strengthens plans. → Advanced modeling translates data to identify specific impacts to critical assets and opportunity to protect them, helping to guide capital investments. → Resiliency planning is now integrated into public and private developments early on. Explore how these ideas come together in Katie Shannon’s whitepaper, Building Resilience: Sustainable Strategies for Florida’s Coastal Communities: https://bit.ly/4veRkIc.
