Summary(Plain Language Summary, not published)
This Report, produced by the Municipal Natural Assets Initiative (MNAI), provides guidance to identify, prioritize, value and manage key coastal natural assets as part of core local government asset management systems. This guide includes an overview of the Coastal toolbox, a tool to help municipalities identify their relevant natural assets, understand the value of those natural assets and use that information in municipal planning and management decisions. The report includes a discussion about Canadian jurisdictional considerations, a step-by-step guide for effective utilization, common strategies for storm surge protection, and an understanding of the implications of climate change on target services.
