Hines has agreed to provide $90,000, which has already been transferred to the Town, which the Town will then transfer to MHFD upon execution of the agreement. MHFD will then proceed with vegetation establishment to meet final acceptance standards and will develop a long-term vegetation management plan. This plan will guide will assist in shared maintenance responsibilities between the Town and the Flatiron Meadows HOA, ensuring the drainage improvements remain effective and compliant.
