Security Corner
Hello from the Security Corner!

We’ve received reports of residents getting calls from people claiming to belong to police
organizations, asking for donations. The Hillsborough County Sheriff’s Office does not call to solicit
donations. These are scam calls. Our very own Deputy Merry recommends looking on websites like
charitynavigator.org to find reputable charities to donate to, so you’re sure your donations are
benefiting exactly who you want them to.

     “Don't be pushed around by the fears in your mind. Be led by the
                         dreams in your heart.”
                                             Roy T. Bennett

A Notice From Your Federation Board
Change in Transfer Fees:

New legislation from the State of Florida became effective
July 1, 2021. This legislation increased the Transfer & Lease
Fees to a maximum amount from $100 to $150 per transfer.

The current fee in Kings Point will increase for new owners
and renters effective 09/01/21 to $150.00.
The fee is charged on the property, not on the number of
residents. However, this does not apply to a Lease Renewal.
It is the first increase in fees since 2012. After 5 years, this
fee can increase with the Consumer Price Index.
