Nothing against the lady I've seen nothing but good about her just trying to figure out the "gov't" there. Or is the developer the "gov't"?

This is a question I am not 100% sure on. Each of the ten numbered districts and the two village districts have a 5-member board of supervisors. Initially the numbered districts have their supervisors selected by the developer, but in time the residents take control and vote for them. Since the two village districts have no residents, their supervisors are selected by the developer.
Now, how the 12 districts (10 numbered plus two village) decide on the manager is not clear to me. If each district has one vote, then ultimately it would follow that the manager is indirectly selected by the residents (since there will be 10 resident-controlled districts and only 2 developer-controlled.) However, it is always possible that the bylaws are written such that the numbered districts combined get one vote and each of the village districts gets one vote, thus giving ultimate control back to the developer. I don't know.
What I do know is that all meetings for each of the 12 boards is done under the Florida sunshine laws so the public is invited to attend and comment and all documents are available to the public for scrutiny. There is also an outside auditor who comes in and evaluates all of the books for each of the districts.
