Several homeowners at Vistas at Phillips Commons, a 160-unit townhome community in the Dr. Phillips area of Orange County, have filed a lawsuit challenging a communitywide roofing project, according to reporting published by WKMG News 6 on October 20.

The station reports that a meeting notice described an assessment of approximately $2.1 million, or $13,157.73 per unit, if approved. Homeowners allege that association records showed a $232,000 contractor deposit dated June 10, before a June 22 public board meeting at which the project and contractor were discussed and voted on.

The complaint alleges that the homeowners association and its management company committed association funds without a properly noticed open meeting and lawful vote. These are the homeowners’ allegations, not a court determination that a violation occurred. News 6 said the HOA president referred questions to its attorney; the attorney and management company had not responded to the station’s requests for comment when its report was published.

The report concerns this specific association and lawsuit. It does not establish the status of other communities’ roofs, assessments or association finances.
