Want a heat resilience ‘blueprint’ for your city? This federal research center can help.
The federally backed Center for Heat Resilient Communities opened applications on Wednesday for communities to receive financial and technical assistance for extreme heat planning. Applications close on Jan. 24, as reported by Smart Cities Dive. Up to 10 selected communities will each get $10,000 and help to determine the impact of extreme heat on their area, assess their capacity to respond and design a “locally tailored blueprint for heat resilience,” according to a press release.
