The NEMAC team led City of Asheville staff through the “Steps to Resilience,” a five-step climate-risk planning process developed for the U.S. Climate Resilience Toolkit. The resulting citywide resilience plan to assess and address the effects of climate change was incorporated into Asheville’s 2018 comprehensive plan.

Land of Sky Region Economic Resilience Exposure Analysis
The Land of Sky Regional Council of Governments worked, in 2017, with NEMAC to develop a resilience plan for the region’s economic development and transportation assets.

Land of Sky went on to work with NEMAC’s partner Fernleaf to perform a full vulnerability assessment for the region.
