SUPERVISORS’ REPORT
SEPTEMBER 2025
The CDD held its regular meeting at 2 PM, September 9, 2025, at the Club House.
Field Manager Ortland updated the residents as to where we are on the Pier. We have been advised by FEMA that we will be reimbursed for approximately $375,000 for the repair of the pier. Foster Consulting presented the Board with plans showing mean high and low water elevations and proposed elevations for the new pier. The plans also showed the proposed number of new and repairable piles. (81 good piles, 25 moderate piles to remain, and 16 unusable piles). Foster also proposed Thruflow decking on the terminal platform (the end of the boardwalk) to allow water to flow through the deck. The Board asked the District Manager and Attorney to prepare an RFP for the Pier Project, which will be approved by Chairman Barkholz upon completion.
Agreement with Ledgewood Roofing was ratified by the Board. A resident asked whether the dolphin weathervane will be placed on the roof while roofing is being installed. The Board has asked the roofing company to add the dolphin. We do not have a date for the roofing project, but there will be some inconvenience to residents, inasmuch as there will be lane closures during the roof work.
A resident asked what the problem with the gates was, and Henry reported that lightning struck the card reader, which has been repaired, and the gates are functioning again.
The Board approved a new Insurance Package for the fiscal year 2026.
We hope to see you at next month’s meeting. Come and learn about the progress of the pier, the roof, and whatever new projects may have arisen.
Judi O’Connor, Vice Chairman
