Re: Outrageous 2009 Maintenance Fees (by Jeanette B.):

I definitely agree with all of you on the Maintenance Fees.

When we signed the contract to buy our 3-bedroom villa a Harborside they said our maintenance fees were about $1900 which at that time we thought was high also but three years later we're up to 2500. Big increase!

I wrote the Board of Directors a letter last year when they wanted our vote and told them we live in New York where taxes are very high expecially on Long Island but that's because of school taxes and yet our taxes don't increase as quickly as Atlantis does.

True they maintain the property well but its getting out of control now and something should be done.

Actually, I told my husband we should go down there when they have a budget vote. But we would need a good number of people to go down with us and that's where they got us - they know most of us won't be down there when the maintenance fees are voted on and raised - there's nobody there to protest Agree?

What can we do about this?
