Staff reports expanded corridor resiliency study and multiple grant applications
Summary
Conservation Agent Sean Young said the commission submitted grants (SEC, FMA, BRIC) and expanded a seawall rebuild scope into a phased corridor resiliency study covering Five Corners to the hospital turn, including Water Street, Beach Road, Lagoon Pond and the wastewater treatment plant.
At the June 2 meeting the Conservation Agent reported that staff submitted multiple grant applications and expanded the scope of a planned seawall rebuild into a broader corridor resiliency study.
Sean Young said applications were filed with the Seaport Economic Council (SEC), Flood Mitigation Assistance (FMA) and Building Resilient Infrastructure and Communities (BRIC). The proposed project now covers a corridor from Five Corners to the hospital turn and includes Water Street, Beach Road and Beach Road Extension, Lagoon Pond and the wastewater treatment plant; the effort will be phased based on available funding.
Young explained the scope expansion is intended to address systemic resilience rather than a single-structure rebuild. No funding awards were reported at the meeting.
