There are no elected officials that impact Lake Monticello more than elected directors to the LMOA Board of Directors. Directors are the leaders and managers of this corporation and this community. Money is very important but even more important is the quality-of-management of that money and the overall management of the corporation and community in which we live.

I am convinced that Britt Johnson and Gary Dillon are the leaders we need on the LMOA Board of Directors. They will be informed directors who will listen respectfully to property owners. They will keep property owners properly informed. They are experienced, knowledgeable and committed to back-to-basics to assure proper decisions are in place. They will not rubberstamp poor decisions.

Britt and Gary have demonstrated the tenacity of strong, proven managers and the determination to speak the truth to the property owners. They do not avoid asking the most difficult questions and refuse to pander to the status quo. I believe their conclusions will be based on solid analysis and a demand for all of the facts pertinent to a given issue.

Directors have not only a legal but also a moral responsibility to spend the property owners’ money wisely, and to govern justly. I believe Britt Johnson and Gary Dillon are men of integrity and good business judgment. I will be voting for them. I hope you will also.
