Overview: The Highland Beach Financial Advisory Board meeting addressed a range of financial matters, with the most pressing topic being the urgency to move forward with a major sewer relining project, aimed at preventing sewage overflow in the streets. The project, designed and shelf-ready with all necessary engineering specifications, is estimated to cost between $3-5 million. The board considered various funding options, including grants, low-interest loans, and breaking the project into phases for more flexible access to funds. While acknowledging the length of the process to secure grant money and attractive financing through state and federal cooperative programs, the board discussed the supply chain’s impact on project costs and expressed a preference for executing the project as a whole.
