Assessment Q&A:

(Q) How is the assessment rate determined?

(A) The annual assessment rate is based on a 5% increase from the previous year. The HOA governing documents permit a yearly assessment increase not to exceed 5% or the annual Consumer Price Index (whichever is higher.) The HOA Board of Directors can set the annual assessment rate based on these limits without a membership vote.

(Q) Why is there a different assessment rate for Single Family Homes vs. Townhomes?

(A) The costs to maintain the townhome portion of the neighborhood is higher, per unit, than the remainder of Highgrove for a variety of reasons:

The HOA is responsible for setting aside reserves and maintaining streets and sidewalks in the townhome area. The county government maintains streets and sidewalks for the rest of the neighborhood.

The HOA is responsible for snow removal from the streets of the townhome area. The county government removes snow from streets of the rest of the neighborhood.

The cost of grounds services is higher in the townhome area, per unit, than grounds services in the rest of the neighborhood.

(Q) What are the developer lots?

(A) The HOA governing documents allow the developer to be assessed at 25% of the normal rate for lots which are both owned and recorded by the developer. In previous years, the developer did not record lots very far in advance of their sale.

(Q) Why are some items in both the income and expense sections of the budget?

(A) There are a number of costs incurred by the HOA which are billed to the homeowners which cause them. These represent expenses as the HOA pays for these costs up-front. These same items represent income as the homeowners make payments which reimburse the HOA.
