Speaker 3 reported on a sunshine inspection of a canal repair project and said the section repaired with GeoWeb interlocking units has collapsed after two repairs under warranty. "I feel that this is the wrong, repair material for this this type of abuse," Speaker 3 said, and noted the manufacturer website shows retrofit options that include concrete infill for seismic resilience.

The presentation described the canal in three phases (north–south phase 1, then an east–west turn as phase 2, and 87th to 75th as phase 3) and identified the stretch near Cancun Grill as the boundary where FDOT work ends and the town's responsibility begins. Speaker 3 said the contractor repaired the area under warranty but the repair failed again and that engineers should review whether shop drawings and installation matched the manufacturer's specifications.

Committee members discussed alternatives including riprap or a retaining wall and noted engineers advised certain slope constraints that limit material choices. Speaker 3 said manufacturer drawings and shop drawings showed discrepancies and suggested further technical review and coordination with engineers to determine a durable solution.

No contract awards or new expenditures were approved at the meeting; members requested more information and documentation to guide future action and possible warranty or corrective claims.
