16. IMPACT FOR 2007 AND BEYOND RESERVE FUNDING SET WILL ALLOW BOARD TO BUDGET FOR LARGE EXPENDITURES WITHOUT THE NEED FOR A SPECIAL ASSESSMENT. IF BOARD CHANGES FUNDING STRATEGY, MAY RESULT IN AN INCREASE IN DUES. CHANGING FROM A PERCENTAGE INCREASE METHOD TO A FIXED CONTRIBUTION.

17. IMPACT FOR 2007 AND BEYOND FUTURE OF HOA DUES $400 LIKELY NOT CEILING OF DUES. MORE LIKELY IN THE $450 - $500 RANGE, ALTHOUGH IT IS DIFFICULT TO TELL. CANNOT “CAP” DUES BECAUSE EXPENSES ARE NOT CAPPED. BUDGET AND FINANCE COMMITTEE DID A STUDY OF SIMILAR NEIGHBORHOODS TO DETERMINE THEIR FEE STRUCTURE AND COMPARED TO OURS.

18.

YET, OUR DUES WERE IN THE SAME RANGE AS THE OTHER NEIGHBORHOODS, REGARDLESS OF THEIR AMENITIES.
