ST-13: Utilize unused or underutilized properties
Conduct an assessment of unused or underutilized properties and develop an approach for utilizing such properties that enhances overall resilience goals.

Conduct an assessment of existing unused or underutilized properties (e.g., parking garages) and their specific land characteristics.
Design resilience and adaptation projects for underutilized spaces based on the specific capacity of each space. Potential uses of unused spaces could include:
- Stormwater flow and storage
- Green space or urban parks
- Emergency shelters
Prioritize the redevelopment of underutilized properties when siting future resilience and adaptation projects.
