Our home owner’s association fees are rising not because of increased costs but because our friendly banks are not paying their monthly fees on repossessed homes. Our neighborhoods are suffering blight not because of inattentive home owners but because our friendly banks are not maintaining their repossessed homes.
Homeowner’s associations believe that lawns more than six inches high are blight conditions, while our friendly banks seem to believe that two foot and growing grass is aesthetically pleasing.
If our local government or court system cannot persuade our friendly neighborhood banks to pay their association fees then, at least, put some teeth into cleaning up the disgraceful conditions that they are leaving in our community. Our friendly bank’s inattentiveness has ruined our economy and now our neighborhoods.
