My name is Greg Selep my wife and I purchased our home in Virginia Water in 2010. My undergraduate degree is a BS in Business, and I have an MBA with a specialization in Information Systems. I retired from Deloitte at the end of 2017 as an Engagement Management Director with extensive project management experience.
In 2020 I ran for and was elected to our HOA Board in Wisconsin. We are a 211-home community with seven parks and playgrounds, a community hall, beach, public pier, boat launch and 1.5 miles of lake front shoreline. I am currently at the end of my second three-year term. For the past six years I have been the secretary of that board where I am responsible for the agenda, meeting minutes, lease transfers and all board communications to the residents.
I have seen and been part of our transition from developer-owned and controlled property to an RD. I am a full member of the club, an active golfer and tennis player, I am in the gym at least three times a week and a member of the wine club. I have been on the Virginia Water operating committee since 2015 and the Neighborhood Chair for the last 5 years. I was part of the software selection committee tasked to enable electronic voting and a member of the first HOA election committee. I was also part of the first RD business planning committee.
Since I attend all the Chair Council, HOA and RD board meetings and workshops, as well as some of the committee meetings, I believe I understand the time required. As an HOA board member in Wisconsin and the Chair of Virginia Water I already willingly commit a significant amount of time to the community.

One of our immediate needs is to improve communications with the community and build consensus around the projects. Board meetings are not well attended, and information is primarily distributed via email, which has not been very effective. Another high priority should be to expedite the Florida Supreme Court decision and resolve the open appeal. Failing that we need to identify and vet all possible financing alternatives and put ourselves
in a position to start and finish the projects. Over the next few years, the priority would be to manage those projects to a successful completion.
If elected I will propose a joint, in person, HOA / RD quarterly Town Hall to improve communications and give the residents an opportunity to understand all the projects in a “big picture” format.	I will volunteer to assume the Assistant Secretary role so, I can help the District Manager to set a better agenda for both the business meetings and workshops.
