    Here for appx 13 years. In the past few years Lucerne Lakeside has changed ownership, approximately every 2 , 3, years or so? Homeowner's suspect they were denied the right of 1st refusal. Had to hire an atty to compel the purchase contr hubact be produced. We finally recieve a highly redacted copy of the parks purchase contract. It was alleged to have appreciated by an estimated 4 million per year.! M.H.O at Lucerne Lakeside would have loved the opportunity to reap such a profit ! We haven't seen a water quality report in years. Scary, due to the black sludge that accumulates on faucets. It must be bleached daily. A huge % of the park residents have to use bottled water for drinking and cooking. Management? I honestly stopped counting with 8, 9, managers in approximately 3 or 4 yrs.! My lakefront view is now of 7ft high weeds. In my 13 years here I've never once been late on rent. Yet in June it was refused. A new questionable 3% increase for an administrative fee. Most of the mngrs were no doubt just following orders. In fact many have stated, " they have the full backing of corporate office behind them ." It's unconscionable but they are now requiring our Disabled Veterans, and our elderly residents to trim, mow, and even cut trees! At our age ? climbing? Please! We're not stable on solid ground! That's a lawsuit waiting to happen! These new demands of our elderly and disabled Veterans should not be tolerated! Nor should we be threatened with eviction and forced to pay excessive 50$ + fines. Our health limitations and disabilities don't allow them / us to abide by these cruel new rules and requirements. These services were included, and extremely vital in the decision making process to purchase here, at Lucerne Lakeside. There are so many abuses being perpetrated @ this park. We haven't had the legal right to peaceful habitation of our homes. And it's been going on for years now . My statements here are verifiable. Lus Sandy Mashal.
