Beach report noted stairs at Stop 38 buried about 4 feet and not removable, missing village toters at multiple beach stops (working with Republic for solutions), and lake levels approximately seven inches lower than last year; resident concerns at Stop 40 will be revisited in spring.

Beach maintenance was highlighted by Councilmember Brian Cassidy, who said beach stops 37 and 41.5 will remain open for the season and reported the stairs at Stop 38 are buried about four feet in sand and too hard to remove at present. Cassidy said the village is experiencing missing trash toters at several beach stops and will coordinate with Republic to seek a solution.

During public comment, Kathleen Hogan Morrison raised specific safety concerns about items protruding from the sand at Stop 40; the council said it is monitoring that stop and will re-evaluate conditions in the spring.
