The Tampa Bay Regional Planning Council and its Regional Resiliency Coalition are proud to invite you to the 4th Regional Resiliency Summit on May 9th & 10th, 2024 at the Hilton Clearwater Beach Resort, Florida.

For the past five years, members of the Tampa Bay Regional Resiliency Coalition have been working together to maximize regional efforts for mitigation and adaptation to the effects of climate change in their communities.

In those five years, the Coalition adopted its first Regional Resiliency Action Plan, explored the intersection of affordable housing and flood resiliency, produced guidance on enhancing shorelines and hosted three dynamic Resiliency Summits. Member governments have conducted local vulnerability assessments, adopted local plans for sustainability and resiliency, and funded millions of dollars’ worth of adaptation projects.

Our 4th Resiliency Summit is an opportunity to celebrate these successes. At this year’s event, attendees and sponsors will hear success stories from member governments throughout the region. The event will feature local and national speakers, interactive breakout sessions, and a beachfront venue.

The Regional Resiliency Summit will also host the 30th Annual Future of the Region Awards which will be the highlight of the Resiliency Summit luncheon on May 10th, 2024.
