With the new laws in effect regarding voting by absentee ballot:
We had our first annual meeting in March of this year, and for the first time in history (?) we made "quorum" the first time. The people voted "NO" on the special assessment of $500.00.
This after a published news letter to the somewhat apathetic homeowners showing photos of Management Support Services abuse of funds in inappropriate repairs that are leading to structual damage in our homes. In some units we have cracked concrete balconies covered with paint, mold sealed inside the walls with paint, and structural damage that is covered with new drywall. There is a list of other issues that a handful of individuals are attempting to correct.
Our management company stated at the yearly meeting that we could not revisit the vote of the annual assessment. Still, there are a handful of individuals that want the exterior of units to be painted (in the budget), at the expense of the individuals who have structural damage and mold (not in the budget). Wesley Corbin (co-owner of Mangement Support Services with his wife, Linda Corbin)then stated a "petition" may be possible to reinstate the annual assessment.
What? They - some former board members who are not on the black list of repairs, some current board members who don't have a clue about the laws or construction,and the management company who has complete control over our vendors (legal or illegal contractors, even the son-in-law) and checking account - are once again ingnoring the laws?
Yes, it is true. In our monthly board meeting this April, a former board member wanting the buildings painted (the one who is getting pigeon control, a nuisance, at a cost of $900. in her building. And at the expense of coyote control,a hazard for all pets and people, remidied for $400. each, or $800. (unless they breed) asked if the management company had found a way to revisit the asessment? He said "yes", and started to explain his idea. She stopped him saying "all that mattered was that it was in the works".
The wheels are already turning in El Caro Villas on the scheming of the law loop holes. Help is where?

Dear Melvonna:
Is there a rason you have not listed the names and contact information for all EL DE ORO east.board members, manager and lawyer and published your Communications with them?
Keeping the spotlight on people can help deter illegal business activities by them. You can copy your communications to the appropriatate enforcement agencies, legislators and media.

After more than 34 years of not collecting dues our board decided to place liens on these homes for non payment of dues. ( 11 homes, we don't have elected officials - we haven't had an official election in three years).
These are homes that have a value of more than $500,000. Everyone always felt these homes never belonged in our sudivision.
In Florida you may put a lien on a home but you cannot forclose on it to satisfy the lien. This subdivision is in Largo Florida; it's called EL DE ORO east.
The administrator has increased our yearly dues 300% to pay the legal fees.
I'm waiting for the next assessment.
