Sorry but I am a Republican! I have served on POA's in different developments and NEVER have I seen a POA take a role in local politics nor have I seen a POA take such an adversarial role against the developer. I have no problem with what they have done in the past but I really feel our POA has lost its direction. What have they done recently? Looking at the comments on this forum, do we really expect the developer to warrant a 30+ year old bridge? Heck, we tear down sports stadiums and rebuild them when they get that old! And who funds those - taxes? - but that is OK because it's sports, right? Never heard of anyone going back to the developers and telling them they have to build a new stadium because the old one wasn't good enough. Do we really expect the developer to warrant sink holes after many years when they are naturally occurring in Florida? If the warranty period is not long enough, the emphasis should be on the district to negotiate when new districts are added. Unfortunately, the district that have already been handed (districts 1-12) over to the district management have legal agreements already signed.
