Our subdivision developer who also runs the neighborhood association, made many promises to lot buyers who have built houses ranging from $350,000 to $1.5 million has not kept his promises. This gated subdivision is located along side a river. Some of the promised amenities were: (1) Marina with river access, (2) River front beach area, (3) 24 hour automatic gate access, (4) Park and common area, (5) Private 20 acre pond, (6) Year round grounds keeping in common areas and front gate area, and street lighting. This development is over six years old and still has no marina which was the biggest selling point to property owners since there is no other neighborhood like this in the entire city. The front gate structure states neighborhood and marina as you enter the neighbohood. Quite embarrassing to say the least. I consider these broken promises as fraud since many property owners list this as the main reason they purchased their lot and built their upper end houses over six years ago. The developer lives in the subdivision by the way, and still runs the neighborhood association. Hestill owns a few lots in the neighborhood that he has for sale too. What can be done to make the developer keep his promises, which we have documented proof? Law suit or class action lawsuit by the entire neighborhood is what I am thinking. Also, how can you overthrow a neighborhood association ran by one person and form a completely new one by committee that actually works and is effective?
