BHC helps communities prepare for and respond to climate change by integrating resilience into long-range planning efforts. We understand how climate risks intersect with infrastructure, land use, and community health and well-being. We have the skillset and experience to engage our clients in inclusive engagement and planning processes, understand each community’s unique climate vulnerabilities, and seek climate resilient solutions that prioritize equity and elevate frontline voices. Our approach combines technical analysis with inclusive engagement to identify vulnerabilities and develop strategies that are actionable, equitable, and compliant with state requirements. From the development of Climate Resilience Elements of the comprehensive plan to vulnerability assessments and municipal code updates, we guide cities toward climate-resilient decisions that protect people, ecosystems, and infrastructure.
