		<description><![CDATA[I live in a neighborhood that has both a HOA and a Member Equity Country Club . The neighborhood by-laws make it mandatory for homeowners to be at least a social member of the club. There is now high interest by Donald Trump to purchase our club.

		<description><![CDATA[The developer/builder of our subdivision signed an annexation agreement with the village 8 years ago.  There was also CC&#038;Rs that were attached that expired after 5 years and were never renewed. The village is stating that there is a natural pond that may have to be maintained in the event it affects the storm sewers.  They are maintaining that we have to form an association or they will sue the homeowners for any work they will have to do to maintain the "natural" pond. ]]></description>
