TAMPA, Fla. — At every home game The Tampa Bay Lightning honor a local person or nonprofit working to make an impact in our community.
Doug McCree was honored as the Lightning Community Hero during the game on December 17.
For 15 years McCree has volunteered with The Spring of Tampa Bay. The nonprofit provides safe spaces and services to survivors of domestic violence and their children.
McCree received a $50,000 dollar donation from the Lightning Foundation, which he’s giving to The Spring of Tampa Bay to support its renovation and expansion of services.
“You know, it might just be time we take a look if HOAs are really even necessary.
Maybe we should just do away with homeowner associations as a whole.”
South Florida lawmaker Rep. Juan Carlos Porras (R-Miami) says it may be time to do away with homeowners associations altogether, as more Floridians speak out about rising fees, costly lawsuits, and even arrests tied to HOA disputes. He said this week that he is considering filing legislation in the next session that would abolish HOAs statewide.
