Emerald Hills President Lisa Gortler Addresses Flooding Concerns on Kaiser Avenue
The Planning and Development Board meeting held on May 23, 2023, in Hollywood, Florida, focused on pressing community concerns, particularly regarding flooding issues in the Emerald Hills neighborhood. Residents voiced their frustrations about recent flooding events that severely impacted their daily lives, with one community leader, Lisa Gortler, highlighting the challenges faced during the last flood when major roads like Kaiser Avenue and North Hills Drive were submerged.

Gortler, who serves as the president of her community, expressed her worries about ongoing construction projects, including a new clubhouse and golf course renovations. She questioned how these developments would address existing drainage problems, emphasizing that adding more housing and infrastructure could exacerbate the flooding situation rather than alleviate it.

The community is eager for solutions, as Gortler noted that areas like Magram Court were also affected during the floods. She called for a meeting with city officials to discuss how the flooding issues would be resolved before any further construction takes place.

The meeting underscored the urgent need for city planners to consider the implications of new developments on existing infrastructure and community safety. As discussions continue, residents hope for a proactive approach to address their flooding concerns.
