Item Neighborhood Voices: A Lincoln Park Climate and Water Impacts Survey(2024-01) Carlson, Jessy R; Sowers, Maia A; Bliss, Morgan; Rodman, Madison G; Sprague, Tiffany AIn 2022, a survey of Lincoln Park neighborhood residents’ perspectives and observations was conducted in order to better understand community perspectives on solutions and challenges related to flooding in the neighborhood. The results of this survey suggest that respondents are concerned about increased flooding in their communities. Survey respondents reported that they feel it is the responsibility of the city and state to manage the problem, but also reported that they want more information about what they can do to mitigate the risk themselves. Additionally, they reported that they value existing green and blue spaces, and want more of them; they also stated that they feel it is important that these spaces serve to manage stormwater in addition to providing social benefits to community members. This document reports the results of that survey.Item One Community Block at a Time: Addressing community climate challenges with multi-use green infrastructure(2022-07) Bliss, Morgan; Rodman, Madison G; Sprague, Tiffany AOne Block at a Time Project Overview Poster, 2022.

This poster presents preliminary results from a survey conducted as part of the One Block at a Time project. We conducted a community survey of 100 residents from the Lincoln Park neighborhood in Duluth, Minnesota to understand the climate and water challenges they face, the types of urban green spaces they valued, and what types of green spaces they would like to see in their community. Preliminary results show that 74% of respondents felt it was important to reduce community water damage and 55% were concerned about changes to future water quality. The three most important urban green spaces to residents were parks, bodies of water and trails. This work was one part of the multi-phase One Block project which also included a background assessment of community and climate vulnerabilities for the neighborhood; visioning sessions with community leadership team; and implementation of education and outreach and small-scale green infrastructure projects within the neighborhood during the fall of 2023.
