A partnership between the state and City of Goldsboro, NC has resulted in the completion of the Goldsboro Community Floodprint, and the initial implementation of the plan’s recommendations. The floodprint is a local plan that contains flood mitigation and resilience recommendations developed through public input and planning. Funded by the North Carolina Office of Recovery and Resiliency (NCORR) using the state’s HUD mitigation grant and led by the North Carolina State University Coastal Dynamics Design Lab (CDDL), this is the second of ten CDDL/NCORR community floodprints to be completed.
