My mother moved into a 55+ condo on 11/18/00 in Florida. "Elaine" is neighbor below who started verbally informing mom of the excessive noise from above 3 days after moving in. Mom informed Elaine of the two grandkids who visit on Sunday from 10-11:30 am. (These visits were mentioned by mom to the board prior to the closing and was told it would be okay). Elaine has verbally told her that she is aware when she turns in for the night, washes dishes, etc. which is of concern to mom as it feels as if she is being watched. On 12/20, Mom had the kids from 9am-noon and Elaine called to say, the boys are there and making too much noise running in circles. She proceeded to say that she would formally complain and hung up. 12/22, two representatives of the board appeared at mom's door with a letter from Elaine claiming; 1) noise from running, 2) singing on the porch by the boys and 3) running a babysitting service from condo. These reps. said that the president of the board would contact mom with details of further action. (No copy of the letter was received by mom). President has not contacted mom yet. Reps. of board said they saw two possible resolutions, 1) no more vists from grandkids or 2) she move. Neither are acceptable options for mom. What are her rights? Can they make her either refrain from visits or move? Should she contact an attorney now or after president contacts her for meeting? Should mom write a letter stating basically what I've stated her with her responses to the claims and mail to president prior to the president contacting her? The board meeting is Jan.16 at which time mom is afraid the complaint letter will be read and resolution attempts would be made at that time publically. Would it be good to get the letter to the president so she could have the rebuttle for the meeting?
