Estero Council of Community Leaders

The ECCL serves the residents of Estero as a voluntary, “grass roots” community organization that listens to the concerns of all Estero residents and provides a forum for each residential community to obtain community-wide support for its concerns.

Community Participation

As more and more of Estero's residential communities have been turned over to the residents, we have asked the resident elected Boards of each community to designate one voting member and one alternate member to the ECCL. To date thirty-one (31) residential community Boards have designated their members of the ECCL.

Eleven (11) other developer controlled residential communities have ECCL members who have been appointed in accordance with the ECCL By-laws. They will be replaced by resident elected Board-designated delegates when the homeowners take over governance of the community. In addition five community organizations are members of the ECCL.

All ECCL delegates report back to their respective community boards and residents directly and through their community media systems ranging from email networks to newsletters to websites or television channels. In addition all ECCL activities are widely reported through the monthly Estero Development Report.
