As Ocean Springs continues to grow, development is expanding, impacting the stormwater drainage in the region. By putting increasing pressure on existing stormwater drainage structures, chances of flooding are on the rise. However, more is changing than development - seas are higher and extreme rainfall events are happening more often. We want your feedback on a new project in Ocean Springs seeking to use nature and/or natural features to create a green space for residents, while simultaneously reducing future flooding. During this listening session, residents will have the opportunity to provide current perspectives on recreational activities and nature access, identify current or future areas of concerns for flooding, as well as ask questions and discuss local action with community leaders and local experts. A free dinner will be provided.
