What Is an Estoppel Letter From a Homeowners
Association?
An estoppel letter from a Homeowners Association (HOA),
in this case the Wedgefield Homeowners Association
(WHOA) is an Official Certification of a property owner
or homeowner's financial obligations to the association,
typically they are monthly maintenance fees, special
assessments, fines, etc.
The “entire” Wedgefield Community is a Deed
Restricted community as established and registered with
the State of Florida by the Property Developer. The
Developer transferred the enforcement of the Deed
Restrictions, Codes and Covenants and By-Laws to the
main WHOA which is now responsible for implementation
and enforcement.
In the case of the WHOA, which is a “voluntary”
association, a property owners financial obligations
"may" include any fines and/or penalties that have been
assessed against the property as a result of
Architectural Control Committee review fees, any Code &
Covenant infractions that may have resulted in fines
and/or penalties, or any WHOA attorney legal
(current or pending) fees. Additionally it is
verification that the WHOA is not in the process of
assigning a Lien or does not already have a Lien placed
against the property.

Orange
County Streetscape Hosts
Tree Adoption Program - 2012
Orange County, Florida
- Orange County Cooperative Extension Service will host twelve
(12) tree adoptions during 2012. The programs are free for all
Orange County citizens and are
designed to encourage adding trees to our environment.
Adding trees to the
landscape has many long-term benefits. Along with the obvious
advantages of shade and beauty, trees provide oxygen, filter,
pollution, and create habitats for wildlife. Adding trees also
replenish lost canopy due to storm damage, age, and development. And
of course, pride of ownership, a sense of accomplishment and
increased property value are added perks.
The Adopt-A-Tree events will be held the following dates and
locations from 8 a.m. until
Noon (or when all the trees are gone):
Jan 21
Bear Creek Park 1600 Bear Crossing Dr., Orlando FL
