Nina Maria Jean-Louis, a doctoral scholar in the Department of Civil and Architectural Engineering at the University of Miami is collaborating with local organizations on a project to identify the climate hazards which could impact American Beach and our heritage. This collaboration will help build awareness and inclusion of American Beach in climate resilience planning for the Amelia Island area.
This project should also help to highlight the vulnerable areas of American Beach's heritage, strengthen the NPS application to designate American Beach as a National Landmark, and support funding applications for projects to protect our heritage from the impact of climate change.
The meeting will take place at the Franklintown Community Church from 6pm - 7:30pm.
Snacks and beverages will be provided.
