So really they should just restore it to how it was, and tell the Developer that they're absolutely welcome to come in and improve it, on their own dime, any time they'd like.

It’s hard to find where the idea originated. From a Nov. presentation at the SLCDD, it looks like the boardwalk may be reclassified as an amenity and the entire project done with amenity funds. That was only a proposal so things may change.
EDIT: The proposal to upgrade the boardwalk seems to have been introduced at the PWAC and SLCDD meetings on May 13. Part of that proposal was to reclassify the boardwalk as an amenity and move it from the PWAC/PWF to the SLAD.
Rehab/repair of infrastructure is the responsibility of the PWAC.
Maintaining an amenity for the use of residents is the responsibility of the SLAD.
The boardwalk, even with the proposed expansion, would not directly benefit the Developer so it isn’t clear why he/they would fund it.
