Insolence
Condo living is not for everyone that's for sure but some of the people who live here thumb their noses at rules. Breaking rules and Florida Statutes happen with frequency these days. It happens so much that lawsuits ensue. Those who break rules honestly believe rules and regulations/laws are in place to make their lives miserable.
A few days ago a woman was looking at the unit next door to me that is for sale. She has a cat. I told her no cats allowed. She then said it was a service cat and condos needed to change their thinking and get into the 21st Century. She said she had a mental disorder. I wanted to agree with her. Why don't these people buy a house or simply live within the rules?
The owner of the classic car sold his unit in this building a few years ago. We thought we were rid of the problem. This year he decided to rent the unit he had sold and his cycle of abuse started all over again. At least he was chased off of parking on Lake Osborne Drive with his For Sale signs plastered all over his windows. He has been spotted trying to sell his car in downtown Lake Worth on our city streets.

Oops, we shouldn't have put that mulch down
Comment Up
The Australian Pine lived here longer than any condo occupant or any bird who ever nested there. It had a lot of wildlife visitors throughout the estimated 7 decades of life.
Not only did the Association cut down the Australian Pine tree after the city issued a permit going around its own ordinance, but Kelley Tree Service came back and lowered the 16 foot diameter stump that they had left the day before. They then covered the remains with some sort of mulch, probably from the tree itself, burying the dead with the dead so to speak.
This wasn't a well thought out plan because the Association has to plant trees in its place by Ordinance (but who knows what or what not the city follows?) and how do you do that when you have a 25 foot diameter of thick untreated mulch on the ground. They now had to contract with a company to lift it all off the ground.
I am really curious as to what all the final dollar figures will come in at for this self-serving exercise where owners, other than the board, had absolutely no say--about felling the tree, the tree replacement or the Association spending their money. We're supposed to be protected by Florida Statutes and our documents Just be very careful when buying into a Condo.
