2024 Candidate Profiles 8-14

I’ve lived in Raintree since 1993. I’ve served on previous boards over multiple years. I am a retired Head of Validation/Biomedical Engineer (Millipore Sigma, St. Louis). I have extensive experience in root cause analysis along with managing multiple people, tasks, and budgets. I’ve observed many changes during my time in Raintree, both good and not so good. I would like to offer support to the residents and further the growth and improvement of Raintree.

I have learned much as a Board member and plan to continue my dedication to Raintree. I will work for our community to enforce the rules and work with other committees to bring solutions to the needs of our growing community. I look forward to continuing to enforce the Covenants and By-laws. When elected, you will have a Raintree-educated, and honest board member that cares passionately about our community. Thank you for your trust.

Current Volunteer: Spondylitis Association of America, support group leader, 7 years SAA Program Initiative Panel Founding Member IMAS, Patient Advocate Panel, 4 years PBS Consumer Advocate Board, 4 years Previous nurse through COVID Lindenwood, Business Management Experiences: Subject matter expert on zoom, meetings, conferences and panels with hundreds of thousands of attendees About me: Fan of Roberts rules NO AGENDA Goals: Take things slower, give the voters more of a voice.

I am running for the board to get Raintree to its full potential. The board needs to be accountable, 100% transparent, honest, prioritize the needs of Raintree, allow owners to be heard, have office staff and keep everything in-house if possible. Find options for the needed road repairs, maintain/stock lakes and a rinse station at the beach. Pro community activities/events/leagues with minimal restrictions. I’d be involved in committees and create a couple more.

I’ve been a licensed real estate agent for 30 years and a broker for 11. I’ve built homes personally and been part of a team that built over 250 homes in Jefferson County.
I would like to see Raintree run smoothly with a budget to include roads, a maintenance department, an open office, great security, and a simplified agenda.

My name is Mikael Sweet and have lived in Hillsboro most of my life and as a member of Raintree Plantation for the past two years. I’m applying for a position on the board. I believe I would be a great candidate that will assist the board in defining a mission and purpose for the organization. I think my expertise would be a great asset to the board and members of this community.

Property owner 34 years, homeowner 26 years, POA Office Manager 11 years, previous board member 5 years. Board members need to get back to the basics, not spending YOUR MONEY as they wish. Have office staff handling more duties, keep finances in the plus column and more information in the monthly minutes, etc. I would be an asset with my past experience. Appreciate your vote.
