Abstract

Community-based small businesses (CSB) bear the brunt of environmental shocks aggravated by climate change, thus requiring appended community support. This research addresses the knowledge gap existing in the increasingly convergent field of hazard and climate adaptation planning research. It examines the inadequate local commitments to CSB resilience. The study establishes an integrated CSB Resilience Framework with 11 local planning objectives across five dimensions and evaluates relevant plans of 56 Gulf Coast counties using Natural Language Processing. Our evaluation results outline the inadequate planning focus on CSB resilience that is distinct by community typologies. Tailored improvement strategies can be suggested accordingly.
