...and, at the same time, attempting revitalization? Or, is BOD thinking that time can do a reversal while the revitalization is on a legally-mandated "pause"?
Either option is faulty. The Board announced on Dec 17, 2014 that an Organizing Committee had been formed to begin revitalizing expired Covenants on nearly all Owners' lots. Additionally, the Board has been soundly b*slapped for bringing a lawsuit against owners without Covenants on their lot. That disaster cost Owners $thousands$, had no merit and was dismissed at mediation. All the Owners' money for attorney fees and costs were returned to them. Can there be any doubt remaining that the a*kicking suffered by the BOD at the 10 1/2 hour mediation clearly demonstrated that the covenants on that parcel (and most parcels) were expired?
Alas! The word has apparently not been clearly communicated to 499 inasmuch as the office continues to claim the necessity of owners to get a "permission slip" before commencing construction work on private property.
Owners need only secure a Polk County permit for construction work on their private property! Of course, Owners are free to inform the office and pretend they need a little pink slip. And, if anyone thinks a little pink slip signed by the agent for the Association will protect them from being sued by the Board..better go talk to 66SS, see their signed little pink slip and get a S-bag-style reality booster!
Reminder: SLohA NEVER had the authority to impose architectural and landscaping restrictions on private property. Don't believe me. Read your original Declaration of Covenants that forbids anything on a lot except a camping unit and hedges in excess of 2 feet in height. There is not one word in that document that gives any person or entity the authority to restrict use of individual parcels for anything unrelated to camping.
Either the leadership is remiss in properly informing 499 about the non-necessity of "permission slips"...they are misinformed... or they are delusional and lying to Owners.
