Last month, Senator Deutch and I called on the Governor to appoint a Condo Task Force comprised of community association leaders and representatives, realtors, lenders, banking officials and legislators to address a broad range of condo issues, including the impact of the current foreclosure crisis on community associations. It’s my hope that we’ll be able to address these issues during an accessible, public forum prior to the start of House and Senate committee meetings in Tallahassee, which begin in October. I’ll be sure to keep you informed of any developments as we push for the Governor and the Legislature to address your concerns.

The Florida Supreme Court is also looking for solutions to address the foreclosure crisis, and they would like to hear from you. The court’s Task Force on Residential Mortgage Foreclosure Cases will be recommending changes to foreclosure proceedings and they would like input from homeowners who have been involved in a residential mortgage foreclosure case.

However, it’s very important to be as safe as possible when riding a bicycle on crowded South Florida roads.
