A
Florida condominium association is reversing a policy that allowed only
singles and husband-and-wife couples to buy or lease units in the
complex after an uproar from gay-rights activists.
The Sarasota Herald-Tribune reports the Casa Di amici Condominium Association Inc. in Venice held a special meeting Thursday.
The
association had approved a policy on July 17 that barred unmarried
couples from the complex. Some considered the policy discriminatory
against gay couples, who cannot legally marry in Florida.
Board
member Bill Moniz said at the meeting Thursday the police was meant to
keep corporations from buying multiple units in the neighborhood, not
discriminate.
