Aventura's construction-site rules require the owner, occupant or user of a site to secure it once a hurricane watch is issued, following Miami-Dade County Code Sec. 8-16. 'Secure' is defined broadly: construction shacks, temporary toilets, roofing tile, building materials, trash, forms and temporary power poles fastened down or removed, and exposed glass protected with storm shutters.
