Climate Change Preparedness & Resilience
The City is currently developing Cambridge’s first Climate Change Preparedness and Resilience (CCPR) Plan. The recently completed Climate Change Vulnerability Assessment (CCVA) Part 1 and Part 2 serve as the technical foundation for the CCPR Plan. The development of the CCPR Plan has started with a focus on the Alewife/Fresh Pond area and will move onto a second neighborhood in the fall of 2017, and then finish with a full plan in 2018. The City expects to issue a draft CCPR document for the Alewife/Fresh Pond area for public review by August 2017 and hold a public meeting in September. As CCPR documents become available, they will be posted here.
