The Solano Bayshore Resiliency Project is a collaborative adaptation planning effort between Solano County agencies, cities, and partner organizations, facilitated through the Solano Bayshore Resiliency Roundtable.

The project will guide place-based community-planning and critical infrastructure investment decisions, as well as prioritize equitable engagement with historically underrepresented communities across the region for fair and inclusive outcomes. Focus areas include vulnerable regions within the project area, including the Suisun Marsh. The Suisun Marsh accounts for over 10% of California's remaining wetlands and is the largest remaining contiguous wetland on the west coast of North America.

PROJECT VISION

We envision a future where all Solano County residents, both shoreline and inland communities, are protected, inclusive, and thriving in the face of sea level rise. ​

 

​Through collaboration, the Solano Bayshore Resiliency Project will aim to safeguard critical infrastructure; protect, honor and restore natural ecosystems, and support community-driven, feasible, and financially responsible resilience solutions, especially for communities experiencing disproportionate climate impacts while recognizing their strengths, leadership,

and agency.​

PROJECT GOALS

  • Invest in equitable adaptation solutions that are able to readily respond to new science, data, and community priorities as they emerge ​

  • Elevate community voices and ensure that community priorities are centered in the planning process​

  • Strengthen local economic viability and workforce opportunities through climate-resilient investments​

  • Improve public access and recreation opportunities in shoreline areas.​

  • Advance nature-based and hybrid solutions that provide ecological and community benefits.​

  • Adapt critical infrastructure and ecosystems to sea level rise and flooding impacts.​

  • Foster community awareness and knowledge of sea level rise and its impacts ​

  • Promote unified, inclusive, and strategic planning processes, ensuring that proposed adaptation actions are aligned with existing planning goals​

  • Protect communities from displacement and the impact of flooding, primarily unhoused residents​

  • Make sure adaptation strategies are feasible and implementable, considering technical, financial, and environmental constraints​​
