CLEARWATER, Fla. — The Clearwater Police Department (CPD) said this afternoon an 83-year-old man drove his car through the wall of a house on the 2900 block of Heather Trail.
The man said his foot slipped from the brake to the gas when he was still in the garage. Thankfully, the man only suffered a minor cut to his hand and was not hospitalized, officers said.
Clearwater firefighters accessed the structural safety of the house.
“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.
