Coastal Resiliency Program Phase 1 for the City of St. Augustine, Florida
As a result of damaging storms such as Hurricane Matthew in 2016 and ongoing issues related to sea level rise, flooding events are occurring more frequently along the low-lying coastal areas of the City of St. Augustine. Tidal flooding is the most common type of flood event, characterized by spring or king tide events that cause tide waters to enter urban areas even without storm events.
