NOTES FROM THE CHAIR

By Teresa Kramer Chair, Harmony CDD

Iwould like to thank everyone in Harmony for giving me the opportunity to serve our community. Thank you! I will work diligently to earn the trust you have placed in me and look forward to serving the entire community of Harmony. Working together with Kerul Kassel, Mike Scarborough, Dan Leet, and Steve Berube, I will work to protect and maintain the natural environment, infrastructure and amenities that make Harmony so special. Harmony is sure to benefit from the vast array of knowledge and experience that each individual Supervisor brings to the Board.

I also want to thank the Board for electing me as their Chair. I will use my knowledge and past experience to run effective and efficient meetings and to ensure that all voices are heard in a meaningful and respectful way.

Prior to making the decision to run for a seat on the CDD Board, I attended the current CDD Board meetings, delved into many of the past minutes and watched numerous videos of the CDD Board meetings. Now that I am on the CDD Board, I am working to fully understand the inner workings of our CDD from operations to staff and consultants. With a fresh set of eyes, this time of transition provides the perfect opportunity to review the way that our CDD operates. It is important for Harmony, as it is for every organization, to periodically take a critical look at their processes and procedures and determine what they are doing right and what can be improved. I look forward to bringing a fresh perspective to Harmony’s CDD and working to plan for Harmony’s future.

Remember, the CDD Board is here to represent you, the residents of Harmony. Just as you might write your Senator or County Commissioner, please also let your CDD Supervisors know of your ideas or concerns pertaining to our Harmony community. Please use our official e-mail addresses (located at http://www.harmonycdd.org/about-harmony/ supervisors) to make your voice heard.
