2021 Annual Association Assessment |
Pursuant to the Association’s governing documents, property owners are hereby notified that the annual assessment for 2021 will increase, by $9, to $669.00 per lot. The Board diligently worked to create a budget that would not only continue to fund ongoing capital repair projects, but also replenish the reserve funds, which is instrumental to the continued fiscal operation and maintenance of the Association. It is prudent for the reserves to equal at least one year’s total assessment income pursuant to recommendations made by professionals in the industry and we are currently far from meeting said goal.
The Board of Directors would like to again offer each property owner the opportunity to divide their annual assessment into four (4) incremental payments of $167.25 to assist those who might have a hardship in paying the fee in one lump sum. Please note that the entire 2021 assessment must be paid in full and received by the due date, March 1, 2021, to avoid late or legal fees. Property owners interested in making incremental payments will find four (4) coupons enclosed in their mailed assessment notification, for use in mailing these payments to the processing center. The suggested due dates for incremental payments are as follows: November 30, 2020, December 30, 2020, January 30, 2021 and February 28,2021. Property owners may certainly opt to pay their entire 2021 assessment in a single payment by the due date (March 1, 2021) and decline the advantage of the incremental payment option. The preliminary 2021 budget was enclosed in the mailed statement to homeowners, and will be posted on the Association website and Management Company homeowner portal for future reference. Please note that if a property owner is being pursued for outstanding prior year’s fees, any payments made will be credited to outstanding balances or may not be accepted based on the account status. Property owners who are currently delinquent are requested to contact management to discuss their account. Property owners who are in a financial position preventing them from paying their 2021 assessment in full by March 1, 2021, MUST send a written request for a payment plan extension either by mail, fax or email to the management company prior to the due date to avoid additional fees. For property owners who are currently delinquent, the balance reflected in the mailed statement may not include all pending late or legal fees. Please contact management for the most up to date balance. PAYMENTS BY MAIL:
