As the developer has not sold any land in the three commercial CDDs in the Villages, he is the one who will always appoint people to positions/seats on these three CDDs boards. Would you call that an election. If so, I would say it's doublespeak.
Instead of doubling down on your insistence that there was no election.. why don't you click on the article and read the WHOLE thing. You will see as was already pointed out that not only are the names of people selected by our lord and liege listed but 2 competitive election results are also shown...

Amenity Authority Committee – Lady Lake/Lake County

Edward Regan – 56 votes

Amenity Authority Committee – District 2
Richard Benson – 159
Jim Cipollone – 52
Ann Forrester – 104
Sure looks like a landowner election at least in part.
