Power is shifting from the municipal governing branch to local governments in the form of Home Owner Associations that have the responsibility and power to govern common interests shared by CID communities. Consumers benefit through inheriting increasing open land, parks, lakes, and recreation facilities that contribute to an increased quality of life.
