A CDD is a government, not an HOA. Manage it that way. 

A CDD is a government, not an HOA.
Precedent manages it that way. 

Florida’s Community Development Districts operate under Chapter 190 as special-purpose local governments with bond obligations, public infrastructure, Sunshine Law, and a Board of Supervisors with true accountability. Precedent brings the operational and compliance standards that responsibility demands.

INFRASTRUCTURE OPERATIONS & MAINTENANCE 

Stormwater. Roads. Landscape. Amenities. Lifecycle-managed end to end. 

Stormwater systems, roads, lighting, landscape, irrigation, and amenities are maintained to development standards — with vendor oversight, engineering input, and storm prep calibrated for Florida. Whether utilities or recreation, every system is inspected and kept ahead of failure. 

DISTRICT ADMINISTRATION & BOARD SUPPORT

Chapter 190 District Management. Public meeting discipline. Full Board of Supervisors support.

Precedent runs the full scope of Chapter 190 district administration — meeting preparation, resolution drafting, Sunshine Law compliance, public records administration, and regulatory filings. Your Board of Supervisors walks into every public meeting informed, briefed, and ready to act. 

FINANCIAL MANAGEMENT & ASSESSMENT ADMINISTRATION

GAAP. GASB. Audit-grade. Public scrutiny ready. 
Annual budgets, public hearings, assessment rolls, and debt service administration run under GAAP and GASB standards — because CDD financials have to withstand an independent audit and public scrutiny, not just a board review. Bond covenant compliance, competitive procurement, tax collector coordination, and audit support all sit inside Precedent’s scope. 

INFRASTRUCTURE OPERATIONS & MAINTENANCE

Stormwater. Roads. Landscape. Amenities. Lifecycle-managed, not maintained by accident. 

Stormwater systems, roads, lighting, landscape, irrigation, and amenities are maintained to development standards — with vendor oversight, engineering input, and storm preparation calibrated for Florida. Whether utilities or recreation, every system is inspected and kept ahead of failure. 

DEVELOPER TRANSITION & GOVERNANCE

Developer-controlled to resident-elected — planned years ahead, not on the deadline. 

Transition from developer to resident governance is planned well before any statutory deadline — including Supervisor elections, infrastructure acceptance, financial review, and board orientation on Chapter 190 and Sunshine Law. Post-transition, Precedent supports new boards and helps homeowners understand what their CDD actually does. 

LONG-RANGE CAPITAL PLANNING & STRATEGY

Bond-funded infrastructure doesn’t maintain itself after the debt is retired. 

Capital planning ties to engineering assessments and real infrastructure lifecycles — not assumptions — because bond-funded roads, drainage, and amenities don’t maintain themselves once the debt is paid off. Assessment methodology review, reserve strategy, refinancing analysis, and modernization recommendations give Supervisors what they need to make long-range calls with data, not guesswork.
