POA Candidate Forum – Sponsored by the HOA

On Wednesday, October 30th, the HOA hosted the 2024 POA Candidate Forum at the Tellico Village Community Church.  Current POA Board Members, Bob Burnetti and John Arguelles, will complete their term at the end of 2024, making available two open Board positions.  Applying for the open positions are:

The forum began with HOA Chair At Large representative, David Warmbold, thanking residents for attending the forum and reviewed the agenda before introducing POA Chief Executive Officer, Chet Pillsbury, who provided an overview of what the position entails.  That was followed by each candidate providing information about themselves and reasons for seeking the position.  Each candidate had the opportunity to respond to 2 prepared questions, followed by a Q&A session with multiple questions from the audience.  It was a very informative session. 

If you were unable to attend this event, we encourage all residents to watch the recorded presentation on  Tellico Village Network – YouTube channel.  Each candidate’s presentation is available by clicking on their names above.  Additional information about each candidate is available on the POA Board Election website. 

The future of our community is in the hands of the residents that vote.  The HOA do not endorse any candidate.  However, we do encourage all residents to engage in the process of electing POA Board Members who will be responsible for aiding in the planning and management our community.  Do you part and get out and VOTE.
