Condo's 650 owners may be forced to leave over safety law
More than 650 condo owners at Florida's Commodore Plaza are concerned about having to leave their units due to a past due 40-year building recertification and an upcoming Miami-Dade County unsafe structures hearing. Residents have faced a lack of transparency from the COA and have filed complaints with the state, which has yet to respond satisfactorily. Lawmakers are exploring changes to the new condo law requiring reserve funds for structural repairs to help prevent residents from becoming homeless due to financial strains.
