SPUR and the San Francisco Public Utilities Commission (SFPUC) invite you to an engaging conversation about bold efforts to protect our city’s future. Join this webinar to learn about the SFPUC’s Floodwater Management Grant, the newly released flood elevation map, and a groundbreaking proposal for a flood-resilient building code aimed at safeguarding new construction in high-risk zones. The Port of San Francisco will also offer updates on the Waterfront Resilience Program, a transformative effort to protect 7.5 miles of waterfront from coastal flooding and enhance seismic safety.

Join us and bring your curiosity to learn how San Francisco is rising to meet the challenges of coastal flooding and climate change. There will be plenty of time for questions and feedback at the end. Let’s build a safer, stronger, and more resilient San Francisco—together!

Panelists:

  • Sarah Minick – SFPUC, Urban Watershed Planning Division Manager

  • Kelly Teter – SFPUC, Floodwater Grant Program Manager

  • Brad Benson – SF PORT, Waterfront Resilience Program Director
