The Carolina Lakes Property Owners Association is funded by an annual assessment charged to each property owner. The amount charged is regulated by the association owners and can only be increased by a vote of the membership. A while back the Board of Directors (BoD) began charging additional assessments in the form of “fees” associated with management functions already covered by the annual assessment association members pay. This is bypassing the safeguards the creators of Carolina Lakes put in place to ensure the property owner could decide how much money to invest in the community property. A group of concerned property owners decided legal action was required to ensure the Board of Directors adhere to the bylaws of the corporation.

We are looking for legal help and residents to assist in this effort. Money has been collected for legal action but more is needed. Please help ensure the CLPOA association membership is not taken advantage of and cheated out of their hard earned money.
