Veranda Park Update

Filed Under Blog · Tagged:  

As always, lots of questions regarding the Veranda Park condo buildings (and commercial) in Metrowest.

To recap, the Orlando Business Journal notes that the reorganization case of VP Phase IV Ltd., which owns the 55-unit Offices at Veranda Park office condo building in the MetroWest mixed-use development, was dismissed Dec. 10 2009 by Judge Karen Jenneman. Fifth Third Bank is foreclosing on the property, being was owed $15.3 million by the Kevin Azzouz-related entity that developed the building.

At the same hearing, the judge also converted the case of Veranda Park Commercial Property Owners Association Inc., which owns the common areas in Veranda Park, to a Chapter 7 liquidation.

Motions to dismiss both cases on Dec. 8 and 9, stating that the debtor made attempts to reorganize, but was unable to present a viable plan, court records showed.

Jenneman also dismissed Chapter 11 cases involving two other buildings in Veranda Park owned by Azzouz-related entities. The Residences at Veranda Park, a 157-unit residential condo building owned by VP Phase III Ltd., was dismissed in November and a building leased by CVS and owned by Commercial Ventures Orlando LLC was dismissed in October.

Wachovia Bank NA/Wells Fargo and Regions Bank, which were owed nearly $60 million by VP Phase III, are expected to foreclose on The Residences building.

MetroWest Gets Surveillance Cameras

Filed Under Blog · Tagged:  

After the fiasco concerning the fake cameras around MetroWest installed by the operators of Veranda park, Orlando police are now installing real security cameras to watch over the MetroWest subdivision.

The MetroWest master associasion is paying $60,000 for the 9 cameras, (ie the residents are paying since a proportion of their dues goes straight to the master HOA for Metro West).

The same technology is already watching downtown Orlando and police found the downtown Orlando cameras to be so successful, they are piloting MetroWest. Since the cameras in downtown Orlando were installed in 2008, police have recorded at least 100 crimes and made 20 arrests. Metro West will be the first neighborhood, outside of downtown Orlando, under surveillance.

The new cameras in MetroWest will feed into the established control room at Orlando police headquarters, and the new sub station on Raleigh will be available to respond. Details of where the new surveillance cameras in MetroWest will be are still being worked out but where ever they go, they sure beat the fake ones we’ve been looking at for the last 3 years!
