Furthermore, no fees from residents, regardless of how they are collected are used to support any services provided commercial properties in and around TV.

And regardless of how many transactions have transpired between the developer and the two special CDDs he still maintains total control over them through the Board otf Trustees which he appoints annual. This in fact is one of the key accusations that the IRS has raised in the ongoing IRS dispute.

again, ed...we may not own them, we may not control them, but the 'interest' that we DO have in them permits us to consider them 'ours'...and if that makes us elitists, well, it also shows our pride in them. thanx for the "discussion".
