In 2016, two landowner seats will transition to qualified, and in 2018 the final land owner seat will transition to qualified. From that point forward, all supervisors in District No. 10 will be elected by 'qualified electors' (registered voters) residing in the District. They are elected on a non-partisan basis on the general election ballot.

As a governmental entity in the State of Florida, Village Community Development District No. 10 is held to the same high standards as cities and counties as it pertains to Sunshine Law, Public Records Law, Financial Reporting and Financial Disclosure Laws. Additionally, the Board of Supervisors adheres to Florida Statute Chapter 112, Part III- Code of Ethics for Public Officers and Employees."
Twoplanekid, just a short clarification on your nearly correct statement, four of the current Supervisors in District 10 were elected by qualified electors (or ran unopposed) and the fifth, Mr. Rebecky, while being landowner elected is also a resident of CDD10. So yes, you do get a vote and three of the Supervisor seats are up for election/re-election in 2018.
