GENERAL DISTRICT MATTERS
1. Presentation from Independent Investigation from Downs Aaron

Bro sev

k Magruder of Downs Aaron provided a background of the report and indicated that his firm made ral recommendations for potential Board actions that could be taken based on Supervisor Meisel's

esta lished conduct:

Sue Supervisor Meisel for breach of fiduciary duty, including seeking injunctive relief;
Filing a complaint with the Florida Commission on Ethics, which is tasked with evaluating these types of issues, regarding Supervisor Meisel's consulting arrangement with the law firm representing Gran Paradiso Property Owners Association (GPPOA) and other litigants adverse to the District;
Filing a Florida Bar complaint against that firm's attorney based on the consulting agreement and the firm's use of Supervisor Meisel in the litigation, which may violate Rules Regulating the Florida Bar;
Petitioning the Executive Office of the Governor for Supervisor Meisel's suspension and removal; Adopting formal conflict-of-interest and recusal protocols, including procedures for the removal and/or sequestration of a conflicted supervisor; and
Adopting a formal ethics policy and implementing ethics training for Board members and staff.

Mr. Magruder discussed that he and his firm were not fact finders or final arbiters of any evidence, but that his mn reviewed the facts and the information, which was significant, and has made recommendations abo t how the Board may pursue any action based on this extensive review and analysis.

rvisor Meisel asked if Mr. Magruder could point to any specific evidence of fact where he violated a
ct of interest between his duties as a Supervisor and any information that he had was proprietary to istrict as it relates to litigation. Mr. Magruder responded that one of the primary problems with your
rel ionship with Mr. Herbert's firm is that because Mr. Herbert and his clients- which were adverse to the Dis ict- maintained privileged objections to all communications with you and objected to you being dep sed in those cases to see exactly what you were doing in that consulting role, whether you were being co pensated in that consulting role, etc. all while sitting on the District Board. While those cases were setted or disposed of before any of that could finally be litigated, that is exactly the problem identified- that

unknown what you were telling Mr. Herbert, or what you were doing on behalf of Mr. Herbert, or

it i

wh ther you were being paid- which presents a problem.

Mr. Magruder went on to explain that in the same way the Florida Commission on Ethics had previously op· ed that merely sitting as a GPPOA board member could put you in a situation where you could be asked

to yo thi by

te on matters in which your duties to the GPPOA could conflict with your duties as a WVID Supervisor, engagement as a consultant for Mr. Herbert's fmn in a way that was protected from disclosure from Board and the public, presents a significant concern that could be considered and potentially acted upon be WVID Board.

Paee 2 of7

A	OTION was made by Mr. Meisel, seconded by Mr. Buckley and passed unanimously approving the min tes of the April 9, 2026, Regular Board Meeting, as presented.

Sup rvisor Meisel asked Mr. Magruder to give him another example of when he ever cast any votes related

to

y litigation matters. Mr. Magruder responded that was not part of the review and that was also not

wha the Florida Commission on Ethics said was the problem back in 2022 when it gave an opinion on his dual representation. The problem was that by you serving in dual capacities, you could be put in a situation whe e your duties as WVID Supervisor could conflict with your duties as a GPPOA board member, and that ·s engagement as a consultant to Mr. Herbert's finn after resigning from the GPPOA Board directly crea ed even more of a potential conflict. Because of the way Mr. Herbert and his clients protected your

co

unications and involvement within that consulting arrangement from disclosure by attorney/client

priv lege, it is unknown exactly what you said or did, but per the Commission on Ethics' prior opinion on

yo Sup

dual relationship it is the existence of the relationship is at issue not a specific vote or communication. rvisor Meisel responded that was fair.

Sup bro

rvisor Meisel inquired if someone physically assaulted someone, is that something that should be ght to an ethics committee? Mr. Magruder responded that if convicted that would be handled pursuant

to c iminal law, and that he did not believe it was an ethical issue governed by Chapter 112 of the Florida

Sta

rvisor Lewis stated that he had read the report a few times and had come to the conclusion that he did 'nk that a board only after a quick presentation could make a determination about litigation, and ght that would be a rash decision, and believed everyone was a little numb from all the recent litigation. result, his thought was to table the idea of litigation against Supervisor Meisel so the Board Members time to reflect, and similarly the Florida Bar issue needs to be considered in the context of what is for the District, and if that is pursued it may not be very beneficial to the District, but the attorneys feel that they have a professional obligation to file something with the Florida Bar pursuant to their

not tho As

ma

pro essional guidelines, which is their decision. In regards to the Commission on Ethics complaint, and the

fili g to the Florida Governor requesting removal of Supervisor Meisel, he believed it was a minimum st	dard of what the Board should do because to not consider these options at all, in his opinion, would be der liction of duty. He stated that the Board has to face the fact that there are issues here with Mr. Meisel's uct. He said that he was supportive of adopting policies and procedures to avoid these sorts of mstances and that certainly should be done, with legal guidance, on what those policies and procedures
d be.

Su ervisor Storm stated that he was not on the Board for a majority of these issues, but having read the rep rt he agreed with adopting a formal ethics policy and believed there were some serious issues with the Supervisor Meisel took the responsibility of his position and that the Board needs to evaluate and take
e time before making a decision of pursuing litigation against Supervisor Meisel.

Su ervisor Buckley stated that a lawsuit would take additional discussion and considerations but agreed tha creating the policies and procedures recommended in the report should be pursued, and supported the Co  ission on Ethics filings and getting the Governor involved if necessary.

Luczynski stated that he concurred with Supervisor Lewis's comments and that Supervisor Meisel Id respect the wishes from the public who commented earlier in the meeting and do the honorable thing
an  step down from the Board of Supervisors.

Su ervisor Meisel stated that was not going to happen.

2. Consider Resolution No. 2026-07 - Setting a Public Hearing on Revised Rules of Pro edure

Res lution No. 2026-07 was presented, entitled:

RESOLUTION 2026-07

A RESOLUTION OF THE BOARD OF SUPERVISORS OF THE WEST VILLAGES IMPROVEMENT DISTRICT TO DESIGNATE DATE, TIME AND PLACE OF PUBLIC HEARING AND AUTHORIZATION TO PUBLISH NOTICE OF SUCH HEARING FOR THE PURPOSE OF ADOPTING RULES OF PROCEDURE; AND PROVIDING AN EFFECTIVE DATE

H.	UNIT OF DEVELOPMENT NO. 6
1. Kimley-Horn Presentation on Future Reclaimed Water Sources

ley Miele of Kimley Horn advised that she had been involved with this project and wastewater planning sin e early 2000 when the area was still known as Taylor Ranch and has had the joy of seeing the District gro and develop. Kimley Hom has been involved with much of the design and permitting of WV1D's infr structure, including tracking of the growth in regard to the expansion of the southwest wastewater
mation facility that serves WVID.

Miele presented an informational PowerPoint presentation on future reclaimed water sources which is bed to these minutes. Phase 2 expansion of the wastewater treatment plant (WWTP) will also allow dditiona1 flow from the City of No11h Port's legacy plant and this Phase 2 expansion will also consider
tha capacity. There is no need for improvements on the existing infrastructure meaning there was no need to psize anything that was already in the ground because that was planned in the initial design of the fac lity. Part of this project was to look at the existing facility adding flows on for incremental development

gro

and when it would trigger the expansion of the plant. The WWTP located within the WVID was

co structed in 2020 for an annual average daily flow of reclaimed water of up to 2 million ga!lons per day (M D). During initial construction, the plant was designed with provisions to expand the plant to 4 million gal ons per day (Phase 2) with the intention to be operational at that capacity in 2029.

Th preliminary design report is necessary not only to check the initial design back in 2020 for sizing and efficiency of the plants operation but also to consider best available technology options and also to consider the Dewberry reclaimed water line project which may provide a need for additional storage or im rovements for processing of up to 4 million gallons a day. This preliminary report will also outline go ls and objectives, identify challenges and risks with scheduling of permitting and regulatory req irements, and establishes guidelines as design and construction commences. Reclaimed water and

A	OTION was made by Mr. Storm, seconded by Mr. Buckley and passed unanimously adopting Res lution No. 2026-07, as presented, setting a Public Hearing to consider adoption of the District's upd ted Rules of Procedure for August 13, 2026.

A  OTION was made by Mr. Lewis directing staff to 1) proceed with an Commission on Ethics complaint,
p oceed with a petition with the Governor for removal of Supervisor Meisel from the WVID Board, and
t engage whatever professional support is needed to do that in an appropriate manner. The MOTION was econded by Mr. Buckley and upon being put to a vote, the MOTION carried 4 to O with Mr. Meisel abst • • g.

water" which is discharged water used to make reclaimed water can come from the City's legacy in addition to reclaimed water.

Ms. Meile went on to explain that what will be designed is not the extension of the existing lines, but

up ades to the actual plant. There is an opportunity to secure on average 1.8 million gallons per day of reel imed water that the City at its legacy facility currently puts down a deep injection well which means the   ID at its own expense would have to extend a line from the City in order to capture that flow. How that ine would be funded would still need to be determined which is part of what Dewberry's proposal will con ider because some of the creative use of that reclaimed water may be qualified for grants from the Dep ment of Environmental Protection or Southwest Florida Water Management District. Recently the City of North Port increased its equivalent residential connection (ERC) amount and with that increase addi ional future ERCs may be available to fund the project.

Sup rvisor Lewis explained that the Master Developer expects to incur more costs for the construction of the	ater and wastewater plants after all necessary expansions than they will recover in ERCs. However,
aster Developer has fully recovered the cost of the initial wastewater plant and is making quarterly ents of these interim excess recoveries to the District. These payments can be used towards the
desi n expenses for utility expansions. Manager Crosley confirmed that these payments to date totaled app oximately $1.8 million.

The Investigative Report into West Villages Improvement District Supervisor John Meisel's conduct has been released.
The report is a spectacular condemnation of Mr. Meisel's tenure as an elected official and I strongly concur with the report's conclusions.

Specifically, the independent counsel's recommendations state that the following actions
should be taken:

•

Suing Supervisor Meisel for breach of fiduciary duty, including seeking injunctive relief; and
Petitioning the Executive Office of the Governor for Supervisor Meisel's suspension and removal;

•

Mr. Meisel's transgressions outlined in the Independent Counsel's report should alarm all the residents off North Port and Sarasota County. The report's recommendations should come as no surprise to all who has witnessed Mr. Meisel's behavior first hand.
The report outlines how Mr. Meisel's behavior has hindered the smooth operation and functioning of the District.
Indeed, his actions have cost far more than legal fees incurred by the District and City.
The administrative costs and time wasted dealing with Mr. Meisel's behavior has cost all residents untold sums.

Supervisor Meisel should do the honorable thing and resign immediately.

Good Afternoon Supervisors -

My name is Alexander T. van Brero and I reside at 20870 Granlago Drive in Gran Paradiso. I would like to make a comment today with regards to agenda
Item G.1. - The Presentation on Independent Investigation from DownsAaron...

Personally, throughout my working years (over four decades) and as a retired international finance executive with General Motors, I built a successful career predicated
on fiduciary responsibility, integrity, trust and transparency. Being an elected public official
(aka Supervisor) must exhibit those same attributes at a minimum...

In reviewing the published comprehensive report referred above and, having witnessed numerous times Supervisor Meisel's unprofessionalism during various WVID meetings, his continued combative I antagonistic nature as well as,hispromotion of self-serving interests; he has clearly become an impediment to the success of the District - definitely not the intent/ purpose of being the productive torch carrying Homeowners' single voice on the WVID Board of Supervisors.

I concur completely with the findings and support any follow up/ actions that the WVID
Supervisor's Board plans to pursue.

Thanks for listening,

Lex van Brero
248-535-5468

I am Rick Robinson, a resident of Gran Paradiso since 2017. I agree with the results of the
Independent Counsel's report.

It has been clear since we moved here that WVID Supervisor Meisel has been engaged in multiple legal battles with North Port and WVID, to the detriment of all residents of this community and the Development District. As outlined in the Independent Counsel's report, these lawsuits have cost this community and district millions of dollars, as well as fomented division and ill-will between residents. Another tragic result of these lawsuits was the loss of irrigation water to Gran Paradiso for over one year and subsequent damage
to the landscaping and reputation of the community.

As such, I agree with suing Supervisor Meisel, solicit the Governor's office to remove him
from his role in WVID and filing a complaint with the Florida Commission of ethics.

Best regards,

Rick Robinson

Good afternoon, Chairman Luczynski, VWID Supervisors, Counsel and Staff,

I am	DR Jim Cranston, from Gran Paradiso. I have come today to concur with the

result	of the Independent Counsel's report.

It is

ith sincere concern for the future of West Villages, Wellen Park, Gran Paradiso

and t e greater North Port and Sarasota County communities, that I speak today.
Beca se accountability is important, and at no time, greater than now.

1. I c ncur with suin	Mr. Meisel, for he's clearly violated the public's trust and confi ence, by completely abandoning/neglecting his Fiduciary duties as VWID Supe visor. His actions have cost our communities many millions of dollars and coun less hours. This is not a business decision. It's a leadership action.

Fore ample, during a Townhall meeting, on Aug 191\2025, when the GP BOD was tryin	to end the litigation, we have video of Supervisor Meisel saying to the board, "ass gn the irrigation case to me ... I'm willing to do that to stand up to the [WVI ] board [of supervisors]." Clearly another Meisel failure of fiduciary

res

nsibilit

to either WVID or GP. Holding him accountable is the right thing to do.

Finin	him to the law's extent is recommended.

ncur with Petitionin	the Executive Office of_the Governor for Su ervisor Meisel's

nsion and removal, forthwith.

3. I c ncur with the filin	of a com laint with the Florida Commission on Ethics to

inve and Meis

igate Mr. Meisel's improper "consultancy" arrangements with adverse litigants, dditionally, examine and review the numerous ethics complaints filed against Mr. I over past 4 years. Please insist that ethics driven accountability action is taken!

ncur with filin	a com laint with the Florida Bar a ainst Attorne	Herbert for both regious and unethical conduct, for he was also aware of FL ST: 720 violations
iated with his initiation of litigation by the GPPOA vs. WVID.

WVID Supervisors, staff, ladies and gentlemen:

I am a permanent year-round resident in our community since 2019. I wish to address a matter before you today that goes to the heart of public trust and the integrity of this District.

An independent evaluation has concluded that a fellow Board member has engaged in conflicts of interest and repeatedly taken actions that run counter to the well-being of the community you all are sworn to serve. This is not a matter of opinion or personal disagreement. It is a matter of documented findings and accountability.

Under these circumstances, the appropriate and responsible course of action is clear. urge that Board member to voluntarily resign - immediately. Stepping down would demonstrate respect for our community, and respect for the standards expected of public officials.

However, if that resignation does not occur, then the responsibility shifts to each of you. The credibility of this Board depends on your willingness to act. Allowing a member with confirmed conflicts of interest to remain in place sends a message that standards, ethics, and principles are optional.

If they refuse to step aside, you have both the authority, and the obligation to remove this individual. This community deserves leadership that is transparent, ethical, and fully aligned with its interests. I ask you to uphold these principles and take decisive action to restore the faith and trust of all residents within our growing Wellen Park community.

Thank you,

Neil Brady

As a�sident affected by the irrigation lawsuit in Gran Paradiso, I strongly encourage

the

ID Board to adopt the Independent Counsel's recommendations following the

inves igation into the activities of Mr. Meisel and Attorney Joseph Herbert. All

reco�mended actions should be pursued to the fullest extent of the law. Ideally, Mr. Meis I would issue a formal apology to the Board, the residents of Wellen Park, and speci ically the residents of Gran Paradiso. Furthermore, I will not be satisfied until Mr.

Meis expe relati how am e

I has provided restitution for the damages caused, including monetary and legal ses, damage to landscaping and property, and the harm done to community nships. The full extent of the damage is difficult to quantify. I am reminded of uch time many of us spent on this fraudulent, deceptive, and ill-advised fiasco. I en now disgusted with what has transpired.

I was first introduced to John Meisel with his de-
annexation propaganda, making outlandish claims that would never pass an audit. I have observed many outbursts from John Meisel here at WVID board meetings. Now I have had an opportunity to read and review the document by DOWNS AARON advisors. I had questioned why or how John Meisel has held a seat on the WVID board and now that I see the money he has cost the residents I strongly request that he resign. Should John Meisel not resign I ask that the board take the needed legal action to remove him for the many reasons well stated in the well documented report from DOWNS AARON. (Please see pages 16, 18,
and 21 of this report)
