On February 13, 2021, I single-handedly started a campaign to remove the abusive Rule 1-1 and replace it with a rule granting the owners control of their lots.
This was my main goal for all the Owners in Indian Hammock.

On January 21, 2024, The Club Board of Directors scraped the abusive Rule 1-1 and replaced it with Rule 1-2 in the amended Book of Rules.

Thank you, David Bass and Joe Coyle, for leading a better board of directors and achieving this goal.  

The new Rule 1-2 declares.
The Club shall have the responsibility and authority in the management and maintenance of all Common Area for the benefit of all members of the Club.
Each Owner/Member shall have the responsibility and authority in the management and maintenance of their lot, subject to the deed restrictions adopted in the Declaration of Restrictions governing document.
The Club shall be managed and controlled by the Board. Only the Board can obligate the Club, and the President must review and sign all contracts.
