For too long, many homeowner associations and their managers have run roughshod over the constituents they are supposed to serve. The homeowners bill of rights is a great step in the right direction. * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * Beanie Adolph AOL Tuesday Aug 22 Congratulations AARP! AARP is the first national organization to recognize the need for protection of homeowner rights. State and local governments have abdicated the responsibility of providing residential community infrastructure. They have ceded it to private organizations resulting in HOA homeowners losing their constitutional rights. * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * Larry Corder Kerrville, TX Wednesday Aug 23 Our Homeowners Association had completely ignored the wishes of the homeowners living in our subdivision. Telephone calls to our state congressman are not returned. It is as if some of us do not matter and no one will listen and help us protect our major investment, our home. * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * |
