Redland City Council is inviting community members to provide input into stage two of its Coastal Hazard Adaptation Strategy.
A city-wide strategy for the protection of the city's coastline, including islands and inland rivers and creeks; the project will assess the vulnerability of infrastructure, assets and property to coastal hazards, and recommend actions to help adapt and manage these risks.
As part of the project's next phase, council is conducting an online survey seeking feedback from the community on what they value most about the Redlands Coast, plus their understanding and any experiences of coastal hazards.
Mayor Karen Williams, who is also chairperson of the project's steering committee, said the next phase involved identifying options that would help Redlands Coast adapt to, and be protected from, potential hazards such as coastal erosion, storm tide inundation, and sea level rise to the years 2070 and 2100.
"Redlands Coast residents should feel confident knowing council will have a plan in place to help protect our coastal lifestyle, Indigenous cultural heritage, and to guide the adaptation of private property and public infrastructure," Cr Williams said.
