Re: [MBZ] Restrictions/fire hazards
All I know is what I've read or heard from reliable sources. To give you some idea of what goes on in PR management, a newsletter said that the police had to be called to maintain order at a meeting of board members and residents, and that future meetings would request police presence; or something to that effect. Since you seem to be interested, here are the BYLAWS of the PINE RIDGE PROPERTY OWNERS ASSOCIATION. A quick glance didn't reveal any reference to an HOA although there may be one or two. If there are two HOAs, rest assured that state government will not complain since this is a majority Republican county with powerful Republicans in the legislature. It takes a while for city people to get used to Florida backwoods politics.

The owner of the subdivision (which is probably most of the vacant lots) is Prudential Insurance company. I get newsletters from two. This subdivision is so large, the post office is thinking about assigning it a separate zip code. About the only time someone will be accosted about a broken rule is if a neighbor complains. The advantage of having nearly all one acre lots is that people are seldom bothered by their neighbors. One resident described it as Having all the advantages of living in the country without the disadvantages of living in the city. Winn Dixie, restaurants, drug stores, etc. are ten minutes from me; a mall is 20 minutes, Walmart 15 minutes.

This takes no votes on the part of the membership and would be a direct decision of the Board. Makes no difference if the owner is a bank or an individual. I would point out that banks usually take a dim view of liens being placed on their properties, and once done so, are usually quick to resolve any issues. At least that has been my experience as an HOA board member dealing with such. We have a bank owned property in our neighborhood that has yet to go to a short sale despite the bank attempting to do so on several occasions. It's in poor shape and has even has some vandalism from what we can see. At last week's Board meeting we directed the management company to have the property cleaned up and secured, as well as filing for abandonment with the County, which is a pretty severe action. If the County considers it abandoned, we can attach the property and pretty much do what we want with it until the bank settles all costs we have incurred. Pretty severe action, but we got tired listening to the bank's promises that it was going to be cleaned up and sold, none of which they have followed through with. We'll recoup our costs including management and attorney's fees for all of this before they can sell it.

That would solve the problem, but there is so much of the undeveloped parts owned by people up north; not to mention the huge areas that belong to Prudential Insurance, it would be something of a nightmare trying to get everyone to comply.

Theres a difference between one needs and one can buy new. IIRC you have to buy the handle and all if you buy new but used you should be able to get (like from a junkyard) the lock cylinder pretty cheap. I'd had to know what MB charges.

Re: [MBZ] Total battery drain
You car only has I think a 55a alternator. Its not making 55a at idle. The battery in the car has something like 100ah or more so at idle for an hour you'd only charge the thing something like 25% at best. You're also limited by the battery's ability to accept power. 10a is a fast charge. So really your hour of idling might have put 10% into the battery. -Curt Date: Fri, 28 Mar 2014 16:41:12 -0700 From: Andrew Strasfogel astrasfo...@gmail.com To: Mercedes Discussion List mercedes@okiebenz.com Subject: Re: [MBZ] Total battery drain Message-ID: CAC35L=v8Bsnf+7v-juCCJJdUJmKgKcO1v5qhwM+qmJ=v6do...@mail.gmail.com Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1 Hour of idling???

Re: [MBZ] Total battery drain
alternators on our old 617s are smaller than the one on my motorcycle, and almost all alternators only make a small fraction of their rated output at idle. if you've got a totally flat battery, you probably need to get it out and up to speed and keep it there for more than 25 minutes. more importantly, you need to figure out why it went so dead so fast; is there a drain on it, or is it truly just a bad battery? what kind of battery are we talking about? (for reference, the Mercedes factory battery we've got in our '85 300D is more than 8 years old, and still works well in spite of having been deep-cycled completely flat at least twice,...) cheers! e On 28/Mar/14 16:41, Andrew Strasfogel wrote: Hour of idling???
