Community Redevelopment Agency (Regular) - Apr 6, 2026
Resident Bob Glickman complained dunes are taller than the knee wall and eating up beach space; staff said the design follows a one-third dune, two-thirds beach ratio, and walkway crossings are being lowered. Concerns remain about post heights, plant survival, and the Diplomat area's narrow beach.
