Rules Committee, Annual Assessments
No later than JAN-1, the property
manager of the Association will send each homeowner a bill for the lot's
homeowners’ association annual assessment. The assessment is due no later
than JAN-31. Payment is due in full and no payment plans are available.
If the payment is not received by
JAN-31, the unpaid assessment shall bear
interest from JAN-31 at the rate of six (6) percent per year. The
Association will send the first notice that explains that the assessment is
delinquent and as of FEB-1, the unpaid assessment shall bear interest of 6% per
year and a late fee of $5.00 has been added to recover some of the cost of
sending the first notice.
If the assessment is not
paid by FEB-28, on MAR-1 the Association will send a second notice that explains
that the assessment is delinquent and as of FEB-1, the unpaid assessment shall
bear interest from the due date at the rate of six (6) percent per year and that
a second late fee of $5 has been added to recover some of the expense of sending
the second notice.
If payment is not
received by MAR-15, the Association will file a lien against the lot and it will
be charged an $84.00 fee to do so. The Association will send a third
notice that explains that the assessment is delinquent, the unpaid assessment
shall bear interest from the due date at the rate of six (6) percent per year
and that a third late fee of $5 has been added to recover some of the
expense of sending the third notice, a lien has been filed against the lot with
a fee of $84.00, and a copy of the lien.
Monthly reminder letters shall
continue to be sent at a cost to the homeowner of $5 until the debt reaches an
amount of $500.00. At that time, the account will be turned over to an
attorney for collection and the lot will be liable for any charges imposed by
the attorney to cover fees and costs charged to the Association. After
this time, all correspondence, including payment, must be made through the
Association’s attorney.
This policy shall be effective
