Good Samaritans bring troubled property into compliance in Community Development District 1

(You can read the original story HERE)

Several Villagers were seen stopping by the house on San Antonio Lane on Monday morning to assess the work to be done and one couple actually arrived on scene and began the task.

Their work was interrupted when a crew from ServPro arrived at the residence with machines and manpower to complete the job for free.

After reading about the situation, ServPro took action and resolved all the issues that concerned the supervisors of CDD1.

Neighbors and church members of the couple had maintained the La Hacienda West property for well over a year, but felt that this had to reach an end somehow and were going to leave it up to the CDD and the District to come to a resolution.

The neighbors that were interviewed voiced their disappointment over what they felt was unfair criticism from other Villagers who did not have knowledge of the complete situation and how long it had been going on.
