I read an article in the print edition of the Outlook today while visiting with the MIL.  Above the fold story is all about ammendment 1 on the ballet in November.  If approved iw will allow the formation of a "road district" where the homeowners will be assesed a special tax to be held till repairs are needed and then the "board" of this road district decides how to spend it.

Just wow!  So RL is tired of doing the maintenence on the raods in a gated community so they want to do some cost shifting to the homeowners.  It appears there was some oversight on the part of RL when WP was developed and the roads were left for RL to deal with.  This ammendment has been voted down once already some years back.  I coulnd't care less about a dispute between RL and the homewoners within the gates.  But I do care about what the good Mr. Lamberth said in his interview.  He says if the voters vote down the ammendment again, then RL will just 'give the roads to the county".  Well isn't that nice of him.

So the mighty RL screwed up in drafitng the original HOA and now the taxpayers are supposed to just jump up and say yes please, can we please pay to maintain the roads BEHIND your gates.  What a slimey, sleazy comment to make, but I assure you he is serious.  I don't know the legallity of it all, but you can't give the roads to the county to maintain and still expect to keep the gates up.  We pay for them, WE RIDE THEM.  I will by a $500 smoking clunker just to drive through there as often as possible if that were to happen.

The sad thing is they will probably get away with it, which is exactly why Woody Won.  They simply don't want the expense any longer and just thnk they can shift it off onto the taxpayers.  Even if they get the ammendment passed and manage to shift the cost to the homeowners within the gates only the county still gets saddled with the expense of collecting and administering the "special assessment" to be used by the PRIVATE BOARD to maintian private roads within their gates.

Is it just me or is this all kinds of wrong?
