DAVENPORT, Fla. — Drivers are being asked to find an alternate route after a water main break in Davenport Friday morning.
Officials from Polk County Utilities said the eight-inch line break occurred at the intersection of US Highway 27 and Citrus Ridge Drive.
As a result, residents in the Royal Ridge, Citrus Ridge, Royal Palms, Aylesbury, Regency Ridge and Prestwick Village subdivisions will experience low to no water pressure. There are currently an estimated 1,000 customers impacted.
The break has compromised the road, so officials ask that drivers avoid the area if they can as crews make assessments.
“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.
