The first phase of the $4 to $5 million project, which Bragg said is currently funded to about $2.3 million, involves raising the level of the current parking lot and creating a "constructed wetlands," or so-called "living shoreline" around it that can better handle the effects of climate change.
And the timeline for the project is estimated to be around 2023, with a second phase centered on the often-flooded Battleship Park slated for 2024.
"We can deal with climate change," Bragg said, by using this "cutting edge technology (of living shorelines) that has not been used that much locally.
