Upcoming CDD Election in Cory Lake Isles: What You Need to Know
By Cynthia McIntyre
The Cory Lake Isles Community Development District (CDD) election is fast approaching, with three out of five supervisor seats on the ballot during the November 5 general election. This election plays a critical role in shaping the future of our community, as the CDD is responsible for managing and financing the infrastructure that supports our neighborhood’s development. Governed under Chapter 190 of the Florida Statutes, the CDD provides an alternative to municipal incorporation, granting our community a localized form of governance.
Each CDD supervisor serves a 4-year term, and the upcoming election will determine the leadership for Seats 1, 2, and 3. Understanding who these candidates are and the roles they will play in our community’s future is vital for informed voting.
Seat 1: Ron Acoff (Unopposed)
Ron Acoff, the incumbent supervisor, is running unopposed for re-election to Seat 1.
Seat 2: A Contested Race Between Juan Jose Aliaga and Prasad Yealuru
The most closely watched seat this election cycle is Seat 2, where two candidates are vying for the position: Juan Jose Aliaga and Prasad Yealuru. This competitive race gives residents a choice between differing perspectives and ideas on how best to manage the community’s affairs.
Seat 3: Anthony Hawkeye (Unopposed)
Like Ron Acoff, Anthony Hawkeye is running unopposed for Seat 3. A new face to the CDD, Hawkeye’s candidacy brings fresh energy and ideas.
The Importance of Your Vote
While two of the seats are uncontested, the race for Seat 2 highlights the importance of voter participation. Each vote helps shape the policies that will impact the future of Cory Lake Isles, from infrastructure improvements to community services.
Mark your calendars for November 5, and make sure to cast your vote to have a say in the future of our community!

Voting Facts:
Are non-citizens able to vote in Florida?
In Florida, it’s against the law for non-citizens to register to vote or vote, and Florida has a strong commitment to ensuring that. When registering to vote, the applicant must affirm that they are a U.S. citizen, and that they understand that falsifying the document is a 3rd degree felony. In
accordance with the law, our office reviews the application for completeness and the Department of State Division of Elections verifies their identity through their license or social security number before the registration is considered valid.
The Division of Elections coordinates with official sources on a regular basis and forwards any credible and reliable information on non-citizenship to our office. When we receive evidence that a person is ineligible to vote, we follow Florida law (FS 98.075) to provide notice and an opportunity to be heard to that registrant and, if the information remains valid, remove them from the voter rolls.
Where can I find more information on the ballot amendments?
Visit the 2024 General Election page (bit.ly/4epN1BK ) to read the amendments and see the proposed changes to the
Florida Constitution.
Proposed amendments to the Florida Constitution require 60% approval from voters to pass (Florida Constitution, Article XI, Section 5(e)) and proposed Hillsborough County and City of Tampa referendums require majority approval from voters to pass.
What checks and balances ensure an accurate vote count?
To make sure every ballot is counted, we have systematic, redundant procedures in place to track how many ballots are issued, returned and counted. Our ballot scanners are tested repeatedly and publicly before every election. Afterwards, we run a post-election audit, scanning every ballot into a separate State-certified system to confirm the accuracy of our results. Finally, to ensure accountability, election results and voter history become public record.

Cory Lake Isles Workout Room Reopens with Upgrades
Great news for fitness enthusiasts in Cory Lake Isles—the community workout room has officially reopened, complete with fresh upgrades to enhance your exercise experience. Following extensive renovations, our fitness center is now better equipped than ever to provide a comfortable and motivating environment. These upgrades, from climate control to equipment maintenance, reflect the CDD’s commitment to creating a welcoming space that meets the needs of residents.
One of the most exciting improvements is the installation of a brand-new air conditioning system, ensuring that the temperature remains consistently below 70 degrees. This enhancement allows residents to work out in a cool, comfortable setting—a welcome change from the warmer conditions in the past. Regardless of the outdoor heat, the workout room now provides an ideal atmosphere for residents to exercise
without overheating or discomfort, making each workout more enjoyable.
In addition to the climate control upgrade, the workout room has received a number of aesthetic and structural improvements. The ceiling, previously showing signs of water damage from the prior air conditioner, has been fully repaired to give the room a refreshed, polished look. To add to the sense of renewal, the entire area has been repainted, bringing a clean and vibrant look that matches the energy and purpose of the space.
Completing these renovations, all televisions on the workout equipment have been repaired, allowing residents to once again enjoy entertainment as they exercise. Whether you prefer catching up on the latest news, watching sports, or tuning into your favorite shows, each piece of equipment’s screen is fully functional, adding convenience and enjoyment to your workout.
In the final stages of the project, Joe O’Reilly, our facility manager, worked with a Spectrum repairman to ensure that every TV screen was up and running smoothly. This hands-on approach by our management highlights the dedication to providing a high-quality experience for everyone using the facilities.
A comfortable, well-equipped space is important to maintain health and wellness. These improvements are intended to make every visit to the gym as pleasant as possible. The renovated workout room is more than just a space for physical fitness—it is a symbol of a commitment to fostering a strong, health-conscious community.
If you haven’t visited the workout room recently, now is the perfect time to stop by and see the changes for yourself. With a cooler temperature, repaired ceiling, fresh paint, and working TVs, the space is ready for you to enjoy.
Juniper’s Massive Clean-Up Efforts
Revitalize Cory Lake Isles
In the wake of the recent hurricane, our Cory Lake Isles community landscape sustained considerable damage, leaving behind a visible mark as you drive throughout the neighborhood. Trees were broken, uprooted, and scattered, while branches littered lawns, sidewalks, and the community’s shared spaces. For a community that takes such pride in its appearance, this was no small disruption. However, thanks to the relentless efforts of our trusted landscape partner, Juniper, we are already seeing a remarkable turnaround.
The Juniper team has taken on the extensive task of restoring our grounds with unwavering dedication and attention to detail. Their clean-up efforts are substantial and often go unrecognized
as they work seven days a week to clear debris, prune damaged branches, and stabilize or remove trees that were compromised by the storm’s force. This meticulous work is not only about visual restoration but also involves taking strategic measures to protect the community's landscape in the longer term.
Juniper’s crews are often working in less-than-ideal conditions, dealing with sun, rain, snakes, alligators and challenging terrain. Despite these obstacles, they remain committed to the task, understanding how much the community values the beauty and upkeep of our natural environment. The team’s expertise is evident in every project they undertake, ensuring our community can regain its lush and well-kept appearance
safely and efficiently.
As you pass by a Juniper crew member on your daily drive or walk, take a moment to wave, smile, or even stop and say a quick “thank you.” Acknowledging their hard work goes a long way in making them feel appreciated, especially during such an intense period of recovery and restoration. Their diligent efforts are crucial to reestablishing Cory Lake Isles as the picturesque community we all enjoy.
Let us show our gratitude to the exceptional team at Juniper for their role in bringing Cory Lake Isles back to its pristine state. Their dedication exemplifies a commitment to quality and community pride that is truly commendable.

Pisces (Feb. 19 – March 20) – Saturn moves direct in your sign, strengthening your boundaries and helping you make balanced, clear choices. Stay firm about your needs, even if it causes ripples in relationships. Don’t make sudden changes at work, since Mercury retrograde can cloud details. Wait until early January if possible. In meditation, don’t be afraid of intense emotions, such as anger and resentment. Face them head on so you can process and release them.

Aries (March 21 – April 19) — Saturn moving direct helps settle old resentments and frustrations that have been stewing in your subconscious for months. Your dreams illuminate peaceful solutions.

ing battles that have worn you down, you might feel it’s more empowering to walk away and retain your vital energy!
Virgo (Aug. 23 – Sept. 22) – Mars changes signs so meditate and explore old anger in your subconscious.
