Traffic safety at Federal Highway and Southeast Ninth Street
Residents described near-misses, a recent fatality, and brutal delays turning into Waterford Point, and said adding 1,168 daily trips makes a dangerous intersection worse. The applicant's traffic engineer acknowledged side-street delays and agreed to raise a deceleration lane and signal timing with FDOT and Broward County.
Five-Year Capital Improvement Plan and Road Paving Funding
Commissioner Fesik asked for a list of deferred maintenance projects citywide — including paving and Riverside Drive king-tide work — with ages and costs, so the commission can plan ahead of next year's budget. Vice Mayor Fournier also asked again for an updated paving schedule.

A resident flagged four speed bumps in five blocks on Harbor Drive with inconsistent dimensions, suggesting stop signs and enforcement instead.
