I think the composite decking idea is a solid choice for your patio. It really does hold up better in humid weather and the maintenance is almost nothing. We put in a grey-toned board last year and it barely shows dirt. Just make sure your substructure is level and well-drained. You might want to run the plan past your HOA first. Ours had a rule about color matching the neighborhood. The installation took us about a weekend with basic tools. You can borrow our saw if needed.

Regarding the scheduling conflict next week, Tuesday afternoon would work better than Thursday. Sarah confirmed she can join at 2pm on Tuesday and the conference room is available then. I can reserve it and send out a calendar invite. Let me know if you need any specific materials prepared. We should keep the meeting to one hour since everyone has other commitments. I will send the agenda by Monday morning so people can review ahead of time.
