Weekly Sync — 2026-02-20 — JBF Site Project Unblocked
Overview
During the 2026-02-20 end-of-week sync, Melissa reported that the JBF site project is finally unblocked after approximately 13 months of waiting on client approval. A meeting with Lisa (JBF) is scheduled for Monday, February 23, to finalize copy sign-off and clear the way for the build to begin.
Meeting: [1]
Client: [2]
Background
JBF paid for the site project in January 2025. Work stalled shortly after due to the team needing client approval on copy before proceeding. Despite repeated attempts by Melissa to re-engage the client, the project remained blocked for over a year through no fault of the team.
"I've been truly trying to get in front of her again. Like I've done all the stuff I can do. I need her approval to be able to keep on going." — Melissa Cusumano
