??????????????????????

Just curious. What is your opinion?

Just curious. What is your opinion?

My opinion , "This should be interesting. Should provide lots of entertainment for cranks to comedians".

[MartinSE]

You seem to think everyone knows whaat you are talking about, I for one, have NO idea. I have never thought about "legal fights" between CDDs. It's an interesting concept. I will be interested in just what is going on.

One thing is certain, there is no shortage of litigation in the US!

Litigation is our national pastime, isn't it?

[Bill14564]

Seems like a foolish waste of time and money that will ultimately be unsuccessful. But hey, I'm not a resident of CDD 6 and maybe they have the funds to spare.

[Bilyclub]

CDD 7 is on a mission to get the commercial properties to pay their fair share for maintenance in TV. Nothing wrong with that.

I do not know the facts of the law suit and a battle in court costs too much $ for each side.

PS- I'm rooting for district 7! :boxing2:

[shut the front door]

CDD 6 Board Chairman John Calandro said that his district suffered a $236,000 hit to the budget because of CDD 7’s decision not to vote in favor of the creation of a second Project Wide Advisory Committee, for community development districts south of State Road 44. The creation of a PWAC 2 could have provided substantial savings for CDDs remaining in the original PWAC. District officials last year provided figures that estimated CDDs south of County Road 466 suffered a hit of about $1 million due CDD 7’s failure to sign onto the PWAC II agreement.
From the site we can't mention.

I hope neither District has WMDs.

There is a lot more to this for example how long should the agreement run.

[Two Bills]

Golf Carts were reported massing on the CCD 7 border overnight.
Just normal planned exercises a CCD spokesman reported.:icon_wink:

This makes no sense to me. It seems to be saying that one district is suing another district for not joining with them to help the first district save money? Seriously? Can I sue my next door neighbor for not joining Sams Club with me? I mean I could have save money using the referral reward!

CCD 6 is reported to be bringing in mercenaries from CCD5, and pleading for more golf carts from other friendly CCD's.
Whole thing could escalate over next few days.

If anyone needs them, I have a, uh, supply of hand held anti-golf cart self guided missiles.

Why can’t we just all get along? Just witnessed two senior ladies verbally abusing each other at the gas pumps. It’s amazing how selfish one person or a group of people can be. Indeed, we are living in turbulent times.

I am coming to believe that the aging brain has a lot to do with the aggressive attitude in TV. People are easily angered over the most minor aggravations, we will not wait our turn without sighing deeply and being a pain. Try standing in the line at Publix for meds and listen to the complaints from both males and females. Very recently whilst waiting to cash out at Publix, the gentleman behind me said what is the matter with these people, they are retired, there is nothing for them to do or be doing. They are living in God's waiting room.

[ldovermiller]

Oh, the developer loves it when we battle each other. Why isn't all CDD's asking the developer to pay it's fair share. Just wait until this
this new "Fire District" gets it legs.....watch your wallet. No mention about making the commercial properties pay more than we do for
our homes. WAKE UP, the pot of water is starting to boil, froggies"

I think you are on to something here. Some older people often seem to have a low frustration tolerance and they are much quicker to express their anger than they were when they were younger. Maybe the aging brain loses flexibility and no longer has the ability to handle difficulty as it once did. I know I am much quicker today to “tell people what I think,” but I no longer consider that a good thing to do. For my own peace of mind I am trying to regain my tolerance and peacefulness. It appears to be working, but do not talk to my wife. My “new” slogans are “chill out” and “go with the flow.”

As a resident of district 7 not amused

As a resident of District 5, I’m not amused by what District 7 is doing. Costing me money.

There’s a right way and and a wrong way to pursue change. District 7 is hurting its residents and the residents of other districts.

[Windguy]

My opinion is that people shouldn’t be so cryptic in their posts.

Perhaps you should learn more about what is going on between the districts and the developer.

[larcha]

Perhaps President Nitup will comment soon.

[Laker14]

I have no idea what the conflict is. If you do, and don't want to explain it on this thread, perhaps you could post a link to some informative website.

It's to SAVE all districts between 466 and 44 a million dollars. Not just 6.

[Bogie Shooter]

Perhaps President Nitup will comment soon.

Who dat?

[twoplanekid]

Will the amenities cost more for those living south of 44 to maintain than to the north in TV when the buildout is complete? As the areas south of 44 become as large as those north of 44, would this larger pot of monies be better kept in one large fund for all of TV to use? Why have a north and south TV? One district staff will operate both? I do sometimes have a lot of questions.

"When the build out is complete"?? He thinks the build out is going to be complete. TV will continue building as as it is profitable. That is business.

That was a hardy har har. :) So, the pot will continue to grow unless divided by 44 and then 50? :icon_wink:

"Fair share," is an interesting concept. Fair is in the eye of the beholder-impossible to define.

Those people work for the villages. Part of the entertainment.

"Turbulent times." Things have always been turbulent.

It is amazing how civility has deteriorated. Yesterday, traveling on a MMP where a ramp from a tunnel comes up to merge with a nice big red stop sign, it was obvious the cart approaching it had no intention of stopping and every intention of running right through it and trying to hit me, so I hit the horn. In return, I was treated to a one finger salute from this 75+ year, 30+ pound overweight 5'6" man. We had to stop at a stop sign just a bit further up, so I asked, in fact rather politely, if he had failed to see the stop sign, to which he replied "Stick it up your....well, we all know where" It took quite a bit of restraint not to get out of my cart and demonstrate his own suggestion with his own 7 iron on him:1rotfl::1rotfl::1rotfl:

Which is why I stayed in my cart. Besides, he made it clear that he wasn't worth it.

Messy operation and no anesthesiologist to help subdue, I mean "relax" the screaming pig, patient. Not to mention, the wait for his insurance to pay up (if he is covered for rectal golf club insertion surgery).

And I think you're on to something. Medical experts say 1-in-3 people 80 and above have some form of dementia, which begins years earlier. Much of this reported spousal abuse, I think, reflects dementia.

"Fair share," is an interesting concept. Fair is in the eye of the beholder-impossible to define.

Attorney Michael Eckert, who has been hired independently to represent CDD 7, said his research has revealed that residents are being overbilled by perhaps 25 to 30 percent for their share of PWAC costs.

“It’s significant that the residents are being overbilled. The more the residents have to pay, the less the commercial districts have to pay,” Eckert said.

It would be nice to see the methodology used to determine the 25% overbilling.
