Barbara Follett

How is it that an employee of the developer/management company, Barbara Follett, has the power to rearrange the leadership of our community's financial custodian -- the CDD Board of Directors? Keep in mind, that developer/management company holds contracts (worth over one million dollars of our money) that are dependent on the decisions of that Board.
Ms. Stevens announced, on the record in the Jan 8th CDD meeting, that Barbara Follett (and her husband Bill)were the people who caused her to make a motion to remove the CDD Chairman (Mr. Salvin)midterm. The motion was seconded by Eaton and passed due to the vote of Stevens, Eaton, and Owens(an officer in that developer/management company). Stevens then nominated Jake Eaton for Chairman and the same three put him in office. Then the same three put Ms. Stevens in office as the Vice-Chair.
How is that?
Well Ms. Stevens' husband appears to be a manager for that developer/management firm. They also appear to have the ballroom reserved every Thursday night (through the services of Barbara Follett)at no charge to the Stevens. This is for square dancing lessons where every resident participating has to pay $3.00 to attend. Square dancing also appears to have non-residents involved. Free ballroom...money in the his pocket....hmmmm I would think that the people that are taken these lesions should quit. Keith is using the ballroom free at our expense and he is putting money in his pocket.
Then there is Mr Owens. Did he forget AGAIN to announce before the vote and comments that he is actually in the chain of command for Barbara Follett's employer. Isn't that a violation of State of Florida Ethics mandate.
