As detailed in an email blast on May 28, the Floating Homes Association (FHA) has heard many concerns from floating home residents about fees and costs charged by or policies imposed by their marinas.
In response, the FHA, through its Legislative Action Committee (LAC) and generous donations from residents, engaged an attorney with experience in real estate and tenant law to review these fees and expenses to determine if they are permissible under the Floating Home Residency Law (FHRL).
In a letter to the marina owners, the LAC asked for meetings to address the issues raised in the attorney’s legal memorandum.
Waldo Point Harbor (WPH) responded to the request and a meeting with LAC representatives and WPH has been scheduled for July 18th to review the legal memo you all received.
Counsel for both sides will be present. The LAC is still waiting to hear from the other marina owners to set up meetings, which will be announced in the Floating Times.
The FHA thanks everyone who has already donated to the legal fund. Additional funds will be needed as this process moves forward. If you are able, you can contribute on the FHA website.
If you have any questions or comments, please share them with the FHA.
