The Florida Association of Special Districts held its annual conference in Estero, Fla., June 4-8 and presented Indian Trail Improvement District Vice President Carol Jacobs with the Certified District Official (CDO) designation as part of their annual graduating class.
The Certified District Officials (CDO) Program is offered through FASD and is open to all elected officials from special districts in Florida.

In addition to her role on the ITID Board of Supervisors, Jacobs operates C&R of Palm Beach Land Development in The Acreage. She has served as chair of the American Cancer Society’s Acreage/Loxahatchee Relay for Life, member of the Acreage Landowners’ Association and president of the Acreage Horseman’s Association, as well as other organizations serving The Acreage and the western communities.

You go Carol, proud to have you in our Community!
