Budget Inspections ????? Every 2 years, full inspections are conducted on each and every building documenting the condition (how long is it going to last) on all major systems. Exterior system covers items like roofs, gutters, windows, siding, foundations, driveways, parking areas etc. Interior covers electrical, heating, water, piping, walls, ceilings, equipment, kitchens and bathrooms.

Info from these inspections end up in.. A 3, 5 and10 year plan of replacement schedules with corresponding estimated costs and an expected life span. Each house has it’s own inspection sheet complete with total costs over time. When budget planning time comes we look at the next fiscal year to determine what needs to be done and how much it will cost. After some discussion and revisions, the Development Committee submits its proposed plan to the Finance Committee.

Total Major Budget for 2009 –‘10 $ 508,000 Total Major Maintenance Money Spent 2004 to 2010 $2,442,757

Annual Maintenance Budget 2004 through $ 1,488,480 Yearly Annual Budget continues to rise, From a low of 220,780 in “04 – ‘05 To $ 304,200 in The 2008 –’09 Actual Annual was $ 347,716 which was $60,716 over budget.

Why do Costs Increase? Decreasing member maintenance skills Increasing scholastic demands which leave less expendable time for members to perform maintenance. Increasing requirements from City and National codes. Our Houses aren’t getting any younger. 90% of our houses are centenarians. The list goes on…..
