NARC Releases Survey of Regional Planning for Climate Adaptation

The National Association of Regional Councils (NARC) recently released A Survey of Regional Planning for Climate Adaptation, a report designed to detail how regional planning organizations are responding to climate change. Over the past year, NARC and the University of Colorado at Denver (UCD) surveyed regional planning organizations about climate change planning and sought to determine the extent to which regional planning organizations are planning for and working to adapt to climate change. This report analyzes those results and provides recommendations derived from the survey findings.

NARC designed the report to help regional planning organizations, local governments, and other interested parties better understand the role regional planning organizations play in climate change planning. The report was written in partnership with UCD as part of the Building Community Resiliency project funded by the Sectoral Applications Research Program under the U.S. Department of Commerce’s National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA).
