Too late. They charged us 500 bucks for two calls to that box. The HOA
is obligated to pay for your unnecessary meddling into something that
didnt concern you. You should of called the head of the HOA before
getting involved. Worse the power company has backcharged us for the
existence of the box all the way back to the time of the original
build.
the total for your mucking around is over 10 grand, and you sir by
admitting it here arer being sued for the total costs plus lawyer
fees. 20 grand should cover it.
thanks for posting this publically the patriot act made it very easy
to trace you.
