Florida House Member has proposed legislation that would allow HOA’s to dissolve

A new Florida bill filed this week could result in higher fees for homeowners’ associations across the state, according to our sister station WKMG in Orlando.

A Jacksonville homeowner association president spoke out against a proposed Florida law that would allow residents to dissolve their HOA with a two-thirds majority vote — a move he said would devastate neighborhoods across the state.

Governor Ron DeSantis signed House Bill 59, which requires HOAs to provide a physical or digital copy of their rules to each homeowner in their community including all new members.

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. – An Arlington man says he’s receiving unfair treatment from his homeowner’s association. Antoine Mickel has lived in the Arlington community for 21 years. He said everyone living in his neighborhood are free to express themselves, flying American flags, seasonal flags and political flags. She said Monday that she would request a statement from management for the community and that she was aware of the flag. “There are signs around the neighborhood that I don’t necessarily like, but I don’t harass and worry about them,” Mickel said.
