So.. just stop maintaining common areas? Communal utilities? Water, sewage, trash, electricity, internet, etc?

Is that what a hoa does? That should just be something the local government does

You want the local government to fix roofs on condo complexes?

Well no, that would fall om the owner of the building. But I mean water, sewage, trash, electricity, internet should be handled by the government.

Seems they want to spin those off into opt-in private clubs where you pay dues. Which i guess is fine for single family detached houses, idk how this could manage building maintenance for multi-unit buildings though.
