Resiliency Planning Tool
Collaboration with Dutchess County Cornell Cooperative Extension
In Spring/Summer 2020, Danielle Salisbury, staff member at CCE Dutchess County, used a process called the Resiliency Planning Tool to comb through Village policies and procedures. (And it was a very fine-toothed comb!) This work focused on the Village’s ability to withstand climate-induced hazards. It teases out recommendations, for example, on how to update our Hazard Mitigation plan, Emergency plan, and lay groundwork for any preventative measures in the face of stormwater flooding. CCE was able to provide this service (which gains us points for our silver certification) free of charge.
