The plan aims to ensure operational continuity, minimize damage, and facilitate efficient restoration of services, including specific checklists for various departments during different stages of hurricane impact.

The Board of Supervisors discussed pond bank repairs and landscape and irrigation maintenance. They addressed the completion of the 2018 project through Resolution 2026-04, established guidance for the proposed Fiscal Year 2027 budget, and reviewed staff reports from the attorney, engineer, operations manager, and amenity center manager.

The operation and amenity center managers reviewed monthly reports. Additionally, the board addressed a landscape inquiry regarding a local monument sign and confirmed that pending repairs and discussions would be handled by the responsible parties.

Key discussions included concerns raised regarding the lifeguard service proposal, specifically the cost markup and lack of transparency, leading to an approved proposal from RMS with provisions for a contract and potential inclusion of a percentage return to the District for vending machine revenue. The Board accepted the audit committee's ranking of firms for the Fiscal Year 2025 Audit, selecting Grau & Associates as number one.
