His term expires on September 7, 2007, and he has expressed interest in continuing to serve as a member of the General Employees Pension Board. Mr. Mangum was elected Secretary to the board at the beginning of his term and has served as Secretary for the entire time he has been on the board. His experience as a CPA and his involvement in the audits of numerous large companies before retirement, and then his involvement in the Tequesta Country Club as treasurer, a member of the finance committee, and work with their employee retirement plan for a number of years has provided him with an excellent background for his service to the Village. Mr. Mangum has attended all except two meetings during the past two years; the meetings he missed were when he was out of town due to a death in the family.
