Hosted and
produced by Shu Bartholomew, "On The
Commons" is a weekly radio show
dedicated to discussing the many issues
surrounding mandatory homeowner
associations, the fastest growing form of
residential housing in the nation.
This Week's Show
A
common occurrence for newly elected
legislators is requesting help from
their constituents who are homeowners in
mandatory membership Homeowner
associations. The stories they hear seem
unreal and they have no idea where or
how to start or even whether any of it
is true. Several years ago one such
legislator, Representative JULIO Robaina
of FLORIDA set up meetings across
Florida, went around the state, and met
with the owners to find out what the
problems were. The stories he heard
repeatedly were the same stories I heard
from people around the country. He would
then join us On The Commons and tell us
about the abuses that were going on.
With first-hand information about the
issues and ideas from the owners
themselves, he sponsored the
legislation, which some passed only to
be canceled later on but, not all of it.
And here we are, years later, the same
stories, and abuses continue. At the
request of the current legislators,
Julio helped draft legislation for this
year that was completely ignored by the
sitting legislators. This year the focus
was on the Surfside condo collapse and
how to prevent it from happening again.
So once again, nothing will happen.
There will be no real relief for the
owners and the people who benefit from
this dysfunctional housing concept
continue to gain, with no oversight from
the government that allows it to
continue.
Julio Robaina joins us "On
the Commons". Please tune in to
learn how He is keeping his promise to
protect the homeowners.
