Proposed Budget 2015-2016

The proposed budget found here will be voted by owners of the association on July 23rd. The time and place of the general meeting will be announced.

The Budget
This budget is designed to solve some serious concerns of the Association:
  1. To account for all our expenses as currently necessary. Expenses go up every year and the budget nor assessments have been increased significantly to account for the increase in expenses.
  2. To supplement and fund our reserves. Currently the Association has extremely low reserves which expose us to the necessity to require special assessments for the smallest emergency project.
  3. To eliminate the possibility of special assessments by funding the Association's needs properly.
This budget assumes that the Association will be receiving a bank loan of $50,000 which will be used to pay for the major outstanding projects, rebuild the out-of-code balconies, and fix the roof. Both these projects are necessary.

The budget will be able to pay back the loan in its entirety in 2.5 years. This budget will at a minimum add about $3,000/year to our reserves but in reality it should be more than double that amount.

We do hope that in 2018 we may be able to reduce our assessments slightly when the loan is completely paid for.

This budget makes it necessary to increase the assessments by 53%.
