The board of directors of a Sandbridge condominium complex has filed a $3 million lawsuit against the community's developer.
The board of The Sanctuary at False Cape is seeking to recover the money for poor workmanship, failure to follow good construction practices and meet building codes, and failure to install proper hardware and roofing, according to the lawsuit.
The suit was filed in Virginia Beach Circuit Court earlier this month.
The 248-unit luxury condominium complex overlooks the Atlantic Ocean and Back Bay National Wildlife Refuge.
It features a restaurant and cabana bar and accommodates a mix of people who live there year-round, second homeowners, and renters.
The suit contends, however, that there are construction problems with balconies, roofs, parking garages, elevators and pool decks in the complex. The first phase of the complex opened in 2006.
Frederick Felini, president of The Sanctuary at False Cape Condominium Association, signed an affidavit attached to the lawsuit.
Michael Inman, the registered agent for developer Sanctuary at False Cape LP, did not return a phone call seeking comment.

What a surprise!?!
It was built in a hurry. The design looks like it was copied from a Miami project. It was built with no consideration of its surroundings in mind. It was built during the housing boom. Gee, why was the construction so shoddy????
