True, but the CDD’s are not part of the state counties. The CDD’s are local Villages governing bodies. Anyone with even half a brain would have know when each CDD was formed that approximately half of the homeowners in the CDD’s would be seasonal residents, yet they set the fiscal year such that the the important budget meetings take place during the summer! Go figure?
