LEALMAN, Fla. — Lealman Fire District (LFD) reported that a duplex caught fire on June 1 after a lithium battery charger was used with an incompatible battery.
LFD said the fire, located at 5211 Haines Road, displaced two families from their homes but resulted in no injuries.

“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.
