How LEHOA was "legalized" to be controlled by the real-estate developer.



This is a follow up article on the comparison of LEHOA By-laws and the laws for the homeowners association stated in PD957 and RA9904 (previous article here).

From the previous article you may have already saw how the by-laws of LEHOA have contradicted with the laws that protect a homeowners association from the real-estate developer. On this article, let us pinpoint why even if the existence of the LEHOA by-laws contradicting RA9904 and PD957, it was still made to be "legal".

On-Going Petition to Stop Southlink Water Works, Inc. in collecting HOA dues for LEHOA.



As of June 2013, South Link Water Works, Incorporated, the water service supplier company of Lancaster Residences Phase 1-7 and other real estate development projects of Property Company of Friends, Inc., has already closed their Metrobank bank account which is the only venue for the home owners of Lancaster Residences to pay for the water service alone.

South Link has been incorporating the LEHOA association dues in their water bill as such their payment centers only allows acceptance of the bill if the water service and the HOA dues is paid. It is important to note that South Link Water Works is a water utility company and doing such move is a violation of applicable trade laws and of housing laws of the Philippines.

They also only send out a provisional receipt for the HOA dues which does not get a follow up with an official receipt which is also a violation for tax laws.

The homeowners needs everyone's support and we need to gather signatures to send them and the government agencies a stern message. Please sign the petition on the link below



Please also help spread the news and help our neighbors who have no internet access or capability to use the internet to sign the petition.
