Help Keep a Roof Over Chris's Head

Chris's HOA is about to evict him without any grounds. Even though the facts are on his side, he needs a lawyer to prove it.

Chris is a dedicated worker in the IWW and IATSE unions who has stepped up to the plate when others needed it most. It's now time for us to do the same for him.

 

His aunt helped him buy a fixer-upper mobile home, just as the pandemic hit, that had been empty for years. It needed (and still needs) a lot of work. And now it may come down to a choice of either his "tin can" or his work truck.

 

After he gets home from building the props for the operas that bring the Sarasota area joy, and working as a stagehand and handyman, he works on more construction projects to make his home livable. He does what he can, but there is only so much one person can do.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Now he is being harassed by his HOA for having construction materials in his own carport. This started months before code enforcement was even contacted. The code office is working with Chris and gave him an extension. Nevertheless, the HOA continues to harass him, and wants to evict him. Chris is in both a legal battle and a battle to finish renovations necessary for adequate living. Your donations will only go toward lawyer fees. Chris will manage the repairs. Together we can help Chris, so please donate anything you can afford.
