Final CC&R’s Imploring that You Vote!!! The CC&R Committee has edited the CC&R’S, accordingly, from the many suggestions made at the Town Hall Meeting held September 22. The final copy will be sent to the printer and all residents of Cypress Head will soon receive in the mail a clean copy of the CC&R’S without strikeouts, a voting certificate, and ballot for voting, as well as a return envelope. Dates for voting and where to send the voting certificate and ballot will be included in the mailing. The purpose of these revisions is NOT to change the content, intent or rationale of the CC&R’S. Rather, the intent was to clarify, or delete immaterial or unimportant narratives that are unrelated, and sometimes confusing, to the current and future Cypress Head Planned Unit Development residents. The CC&R Committee asks all residents to review again the final document for consideration of your vote. Many months and hours have been spent on making revisions to help better the process of governance of our premier community here in Volusia County. We need every homeowner to take the time to be part of this process and cast your vote in the best interest of this fine community. We need 66⅔ yes votes from the entire Cypress Head Community to allow these revisions to become a reality. VOTE-YES
