after he said $50 off the one and only response would be from just about everyone, what is the VHA ?makes me wonder if this post was supposed to go somewhere else

My response would have been “$50 are you kidding me ! Make it $500 and I will sign up , enroll or happily endorse any move they make .

When the POA which was also in existence at that time was approached to get involved they allegedly also contacted the Developer to do something and when he/she refused the POA demonstrated in front of a Sales Office and 4 of the POA Officers contributed some of their own personal funds to sue the Developer to get it fixed. The Developer lost and about $40 million was awarded to fix the property and the Judge also awarded about $50K to each of the 4 POA Officers who contributed personal funds for the lawsuit. As a result of this and the alleged obvious Developer dislike of the POA for picking up the flag to fix the Paradise CC the HOA (Home Owners Association) was formed for the Developer. The POA's objective or mission continues to support the residence and carry their banner for them when it is needed. The HOA is allegedly a support of the Developer and his wants and needs. The POA board is made up of volunteers from The Villages. This is allegedly some of the background on both organizations. :ho:

This is not accurate. To start with both organization started well before 2000. The Villages Homeowners Advocate s is the full name. We work with ALL of our partners not as adversaries but as partners to solve problems and address issues. Come to a VHA Newcomers meeting and learn what the VHA is all about.
