The Hallandale Beach Community Redevelopment Agency's Board of Directors convened on September 29, 2025, at 5:04 PM, with Chair Cooper leading the meeting. The session began with a roll call confirming a quorum, with Vice Chair Lazarus and Director Butler absent. Executive Director Dr. Earl and Attorney Suckowitz were present.

Chair Cooper opted to forgo the traditional pledge and prayer due to time constraints but initiated a moment of silent prayer, focusing on global conflicts and the safety of armed forces and first responders.

The meeting proceeded without any community members signed up to speak, and there were no changes to the order of business noted by the executive director or the city clerk.

Overall, the meeting set a serious tone, reflecting on current global issues while maintaining a structured agenda. Further discussions and decisions were anticipated as the meeting continued.
