GLWA Workshop on Regional Flood Mitigation Study — IN-PERSON ONLY

32 Lake Shore Dr Grosse Pointe Farms, MI 48236 (Directions)

Grosse Pointe War Memorial

As the Great Lakes Water Authority (GLWA) and the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) Detroit District work to scope their Southeast Michigan Flood Mitigation Study, the organizations are seeking community input at a series of public engagement workshops across southeast Michigan.

The meetings will be conducted in a “World Café” format, with information stations set up around the room. The stations are intended to 1) inform participants about the study and the USACE planning process, 2) involve participants in shaping the study’s objectives and vision, and 3) allow the study team to learn from residents’ experiences with flooding.

All meetings will be held from 3:00-7:00 p.m., with the first two hours targeting municipal and non-profit stakeholders within the study area, and the second two hours targeting public participation. However, anyone is welcome to join any time during the meetings’ scheduled four hour timeframe to ensure widest participation. Each meeting will be structured similarly, so participants should plan to attend the workshop closest to them.
