The study addresses the risks posed by coastal storm surges in Miami-Dade County, which threaten public health, safety, and critical infrastructure. Vulnerable communities are particularly at risk of property damage and infrastructure failure during severe weather events. The initiative aims to improve resilience and reduce these risks, ensuring better preparedness for future storms. Stakeholders, including residents and local municipalities, are encouraged to participate in shaping the final recommendations to ensure comprehensive risk management solutions.
