SARASOTA COUNTY, Fla. — A man died after he had a medical emergency while swimming at Lido Public Beach on Sunday.
The Sarasota Police Department said the man went for a swim north of the beach when he suffered a medical emergency while in the water.
Beachgoers quickly pulled him from the water, and the Sarasota County Fire Department performed life-saving efforts.
Police said that despite their best efforts, the man sadly passed away due to drowning.
There is no other information available at this time.
“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.
