Agenda 01/27/2026 Item #16K 3 (Resolution - The Board set the balloting date for the recommendation of members to the Pelican Bay Services Division Board)1/27/2026 Item # 16.K.3 ID# 2026-142 Executive Summary Request that the Board set the balloting date for the recommendation of members to the Pelican Bay Services Division Board by record title owners of property within Pelican Bay. OBJECTIVE: To set the balloting date for mail ballots for applicants seeking membership on the Pelican Bay Services Division Board. CONSIDERATIONS: This eleven-member Board was established by Ordinance 2002-27 as amended. The Division provides landscaping services, including all public road maintenance and park areas, street lighting services, aquatic management services, beach cleaning, and the Clam Bay Restoration Project. It is the Division’s responsibility to provide the framework of long-term community planning so that residents can enjoy the benefits of Pelican Bay while ensuring both the social and financial well-being of the Pelican Bay Community. A list of the current membership is included in the backup. The terms for Jacob Damouni (commercial/business), Peter Griffith (resident), Richard Swider (resident) and Bradford Hildebrandt (non-voting), will expire on March 31, 2026. A press release was issued on December 9, 2025, and applications were received from the following: APPLICANT CATEGORY DISTRICT ELECTOR Jacob Damouni Commercial/Business 4 Yes Dave Cook Resident 2 Yes Roanna Handy Resident 2 Yes Bradford Hildebrandt Resident 2 Yes Henry Lesher Resident 2 Yes Danielle Sherwood Resident 2 Yes Trenton Waterhouse Resident 2 Yes Code of Laws Section 122-1662(c) states that the Board of County Commissioners shall publish the list of nominees and the positions on the Committee for which they have been nominated and deliver a conformed copy to the Clerk of Courts. The Clerk shall cause the name of each nominee as reported and published by the Board of County Commissioners to be included on the mail ballot, which ballot shall be mailed to all the non-governmental property owners of the class (i.e. “Residential or Commercial/Business/Other”) corresponding with the class for which the balloting is occurring (“Residential or Commercial/Business/Other”) within the Unit no less than thirty (30) days prior to the balloting date. The Board of County Commissioners will set the balloting date. The Pelican Bay MSTBU Ordinance provides that “if the number of nominees for the position which they have been nominated (i.e., for the "residential interests" or for the "commercial/business/other interests") does not exceed the number of open members for that position, then there shall be no balloting for such position. Instead, the list of nominees for the position shall simply be forwarded to the Board of County Commissioners, who, following public hearing on the matter, will make the necessary appointments to fill said positions.” Since the number of candidates/applicants for the Commercial/Business position does not exceed the number of vacancies, the election for this category will not be included. THE BALLOTING DATE RECOMMENDED BY THE CLERK IS: Friday, March 6, 2026 FISCAL IMPACT: Funding of approximately $14,145 is available within the Pelican Bay MSTBU Fund (1007) and Pelican Bay Street Lighting Fund (1008) for ballot preparation, printing, postage, and tabulation. GROWTH MANAGEMENT IMPACT: There is no growth management impact associated with this action.
