The meeting was primarily spent on “traditional” MCA work, which MCA and the Board seem to do a competent job with.

If there are any inaccuracies in this post, let us know at  ForTheMeadows@SarasotaMeadows.com and we’ll fix it. We thought it would be useful and informative to review some of the promises and claims that were made when MCA Homeowners acquired the recreational and dining assets of TMCC (we sort of promised this in an earlier…
