Town officials of Fenwick Island are not going to be unprepared for sea level rise.
After receiving a report that shows the resort should expect an increase in the sea level Mayor Audrey Serio said that the town must take off their blinders and take responsibility for responding to the worst case scenarios.
She added that preserving Fenwick and maintaining its safety were top priorities.
The URS report provided for the town said that solution could include nature based options such as oyster and coral reefs as well major structures like bulkheads and jetties.
The report recommended a combination of these solutions.
