ELECTION PROCEDURES

Annual Landowner’s Meeting
In accordance with the provisions of Chapter 298, Florida Statutes, it is required that a meeting of the Landowners of the District to be held every year during the month of June for the purpose of electing Supervisors and hearing reports of the Board of Supervisors. The Landowners when assembled shall organize by electing a Chairperson who shall preside at the meeting with the Secretary or Assistant Secretary of the Board of Supervisors to be the Secretary of the Landowners meeting.
Those Landowners present or voting by proxy shall constitute a quorum at the meeting of the Landowners.
Voting
At each Landowners meeting, each Landowner shall be entitled to cast one vote for each and every acre, or any fraction thereof, of land owned by him or her in the District and each Landowner shall be entitled to vote either in person or by representative present with a lawful written proxy.
Registration for Casting of Ballots
The registration process for the casting of ballots by Landowners or their representatives holding their proxies shall be as follows:
At the annual Landowner’s meeting and prior to the commencement of the first casting of ballots for a Board of Supervisor position, each Landowner or their representative, if proxies are being submitted in lieu thereof, shall be directed to register their attendance, and the total number of votes by acreage to which each claims to be entitled, with the District’s Manager, who will be in attendance at the meeting.
At such registration, each Landowner or their representative with a lawful proxy, as the case may be, shall be provided a color coded ballot for each Board of Supervisor position open for election upon which ballot a District representative will fill in the number of votes that such Landowner or their representative is registered to cast for each Board of Supervisor position open for election.
All Landowner proxies shall be collected at the time of registration and retained with the Official Records of the District for subsequent certification or verification, if required.
Nominations for Supervisor
Once the Landowners have organized by electing a Chairman and Secretary to conduct the election, the Chairman will call the nominations for Supervisors from the floor. Nominations are not required to be seconded. After nominations are received, and the floor has been closed for nominations, those nominated will be asked if they accept the nominations (this will ensure those nominated for Supervisor wish to serve).

Casting of Ballots
Registration and the issuance of ballots shall cease once the Chairperson calls for the
commencement of the casting of ballots for the election of a Board of Supervisor and thereafter no additional ballots shall be issued.
Taking each open Board of Supervisor position in the order determined by the Chairperson, the Landowners or their representatives, as the case may be, will be required to cast their ballots using the appropriately colored ballot for that particular Board of Supervisor position. Once the ballots have been cast, the Chairperson will call for a collection of the ballots for that particular open position by the Secretary.
Counting of Ballots
Following the collection of the ballots for a particular Board of Supervisor position, the Secretary or Assistant Secretary shall be responsible for the tabulation of ballots for that position in order to determine the total votes cast for each candidate that is seeking election to that particular open position and for determination of the number of votes cast for each candidate for such position.
The candidate receiving the highest number of votes for the particular Board of Supervisor position for which said votes were cast shall be declared by the Chairperson as elected for such Board of Supervisor position following the Secretary’s submission of the tabulation for that election.
The process shall be repeated for each Board of Supervisor position open for election until balloting has been conducted for all such positions.
Contesting of Election Results
Following the first election and announcement of the candidate receiving the highest number of votes, the Chairperson shall ask the Landowners present or those representatives holding proxies for Landowners, whether they wish to contest the election results. If no contests are received, said election results shall thereupon be certified and the newly elected Supervisor will thereupon take the Oath of Office and be seated as a member of the District’s Board of Supervisors.
If there is a contest, the contest must be addressed to the Chairperson and thereupon the individual casting a ballot that is being contested will be required to provide proof of ownership of the acreage for which they voted at the election within five (5) business days of the Landowner’s meeting. The proof of ownership shall be submitted to the District Manager who will thereupon consult with the District’s general counsel and together they will review the material provided and attempt to determine the legality of the contested ballots. Once the contests are resolved, the Chairperson shall reconvene the Landowner’s meeting and thereupon certify the election results with the newly elected Supervisor to thereupon take the oath of office and be seated as a member of the Board of Supervisors.
If, following any balloting for a particular Board of Supervisor position, there is a contest of the election results, any subsequent ballot shall proceed but the results of the subsequent ballots for those subsequent Board of Supervisor position(s) shall be on a ”conditional basis“ pending resolution of the challenged ballot results. If the contest over the challenged balloting is resolved and the candidate that was initially announced as receiving the highest number of votes is elected, then the subsequent un-contested ballot(s) shall thereupon be closed and the candidate that received the highest number of votes during the subsequent balloting for a particular Board of

Supervisor position shall thereupon take the Oath of Office and be seated as a member of the Board of Supervisors for that particular position.
If, however, there is a contest of the election results of any subsequent
balloting, then the procedure for resolving the contest of such election shall be done in the same fashion as that set forth above for each such round of balloting so contested.
Recessing of Annual Landowner’s Meeting
In the event there is a contest of a ballot or of the election, the Landowner’s meeting shall be recessed to a future time certain date and location at which time the election findings on the contest shall be reported in accordance with the procedure above and the newly elected Supervisor(s) shall thereupon take their Oath of Office.
Miscellaneous Provisions
Each Landowner shall only be entitled to vote in person or by means of a representative attending in person and holding a lawful written proxy in order to cast said Landowner’s votes.
Proxies will not require that proof of acreage ownership be attached. Rather, proof of ownership must be timely provided by the holder of the proxy if the proxy is contested in accordance with the procedure above.

STATUS REPORT

Legal – Status Report

Ms. Holmes advised that the Florida Bushhog Services mowing contract was updated to include peppers.

Engineer – Status Report

Mr. Higgins presented the H&J Contracting Inc. proposal for a culvert repair in the Hungry Land Crossing Area of the District. He advised that the crossing had gotten too narrow and dangerous, and explained the options provided by H&J for repair.

Commissioner Marino voiced her concerns about expanding the ditch or extending the culvert for an area that was being used as a roadway because the District does not maintain roads. Commissioner Marino spoke in favor of implementing repairs for the culvert only. Mr. Higgins responded that because the area was in a Pal-Mar canal, the roadway was considered works of the District. Commissioner Heard responded that it was not a road, and expansion may encourage further usage. Mr. Cutting stated the importance of protecting District assets, and suggested the District try to purchase parcels that would be important to the water control plan. Commissioner Marino asked District General Counsel Ruth Holmes how purchasing parcels would assist the District. Ms. Holmes responded that it would allow the District to dictate how the property would be used and it would also allow the District the ability to trespass. Ms. Holmes suggested creating a report on what needed to be maintained and what was considered works of the District. Mr. Higgins agreed with Ms. Holmes and suggested preparing a Public Facilities Report. Mr. Higgins advised that he would prepare an outline for the Public Facilities Report to be presented at the next Regular Board Meeting.
There was a consensus of the Board directing the District Engineer to bring back an updated quote from H&J Contracting to the next Regular Board Meeting that includes direct maintenance items only.

District Manager – Status Report
Ms. Brown reminded the Board to complete the 2025 Form 1 – Statement of Financial Interests by July 1, 2026.
