Description
Learning Objectives:
- Identify key barriers and constraints that cities encounter when implementing climate adaptation strategies.
- Explain the importance of integrating stormwater engineering principles early in the planning process to enhance climate adaptation outcomes.
- Describe the fiscal vulnerabilities that coastal communities face in addressing climate adaptation challenges.
- Evaluate strategies for fostering collaboration within organizations and across jurisdictions to improve climate resilience efforts.
About the Presenter
Anthony Milordis, Ph.D., is a resilience-focused urban planner with expertise in climate adaptation, stormwater infrastructure, and municipal planning in Florida.
Dr. Milordis currently serves as a Resilience Planner at the Pasco County Department of Public Works, where he leads efforts to integrate climate resilience into infrastructure and land use planning. Prior to this role, he held senior planning positions with Leon County Development Support and Environmental Management and conducted comprehensive plan reviews for the State of Florida, contributing to statewide policy development and community planning initiatives.
He earned his Ph.D. from Florida State University, where he taught classes in urban planning and natural resource management. His academic work bridges the gap between environmental systems and public policy, with a focus on how climate change affects vulnerable communities and local government operations. Anthony has published work on barriers to climate adaptation, fiscal vulnerabilities of coastal development, and addressing climate driven displacement.
His work emphasizes the importance of early engineering input in planning, evolving design standards for stormwater systems, and cross-jurisdictional collaboration to build resilient communities.
