Adapting Local Recreation Infrastructure to Wildfire and Climate Change

Open to Local Electeds and Municipal Staff in Municipalities with Outdoor Recreation Economies

This presentation explores how local recreation infrastructure can adapt to the growing impacts of climate change, with a focus on wildfire resilience. Kevin Kriese, Land Use and Wildfire Analyst at the POLIS Wildfire Resilience Project, will discuss wildfire risks to recreation resources and share best practices for reducing vulnerabilities and increasing resilience. Drawing on examples from his decades of experience in land use planning and forest management, Kevin will highlight how these principles can be applied at a local level.
