BROOKESVILLE, Fla. — The Hernando County Fire Rescue (HCFR) has contained a brush fire as of 2:15 p.m. Sunday on Yellow Frog Ave.
According to HCFR, firefighters and crews from the Florida Forest Service, Withlacoochee Forestry Center, have contained the fire to 2 acres.
While there were no structures damaged and no injuries reported, HCFR says smoke conditions will persist throughout the day.
Officials say forestry rangers will be actively monitoring the situation for the remainder of the day and into the evening.
“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.
