During a recent government meeting, officials discussed the status of stormwater contract agreements between the town and the Property Owners Association (POA), now referred to as Public Utility Districts (PUDs). Out of 22 agreements currently in place, four are pending approval, with discussions scheduled for November. Additionally, there are 32 potential agreements that could be pursued if interest is shown.

A workshop is set for October 30 at 9 AM to further address the stormwater utility program, aimed at informing both the town council and the public about ongoing efforts and developments.

Council member Miss Bryson highlighted the importance of assessing storm damage and mentioned an upcoming meeting with FEMA regarding potential reimbursement for storm-related projects. Notably, critical drainage infrastructure suffered significant damage during Tropical Storm Debbie, with two 42-inch pipes collapsing—one in Shipyard and another in Spanish Wells. The repairs for these failures are urgent, with an estimated cost of $615,010, as they pose risks to local communities.
