I BOUGHT MY PROPERTY IN JANUARY, DO I HAVE TO PAY
A FULL YEAR'S ASSESSMENT FOR THE FIRST YEAR? -
I BELIEVE A VIOLATION OF THE RULES/REGULATIONS IS TAKING PLACE, WHAT DO I DO?
The Woodfield Homeowners Association is a non-profit
organization. The basic
purpose of the Association is to govern Woodfield in accordance with the
governing documents.
The Association is governed by a Board of Directors,
elected by the members of the Association. The Board of Directors of the
Association has the power and duty to administer the affairs of the
Association in accordance with the governing documents.
The Board is also responsible for the ongoing operation and maintenance of
Woodfield.
No. Any person who becomes an Owner at Woodfield
Residential Community is automatically a Member of the Association.
Membership is mandatory. It ceases
when the person ceases to own in Woodfield. Every Member is subject to the
requirements of the governing documents.
Yes. Every owner is required to pay a yearly assessment
imposed by the Association. These funds are used for the Common Expenses
of the Association. These expenses
are incurred in the administration, management, maintenance, and
operation
of Woodfield.
The current assessment is $155.00 per-lot, per-year. The
assessments are due
yearly in advance on or before the first day of August. A late charge of
$20.00 is
imposed if the payments are not received by the thirty-first (31st) day of
August.
The Treasurer of the Association will make every
reasonable effort to provide you
with a statement at least 20 days in advance of the assessment due date.
However, failure to receive a bill does not exempt you from paying your
assessments.
Failure to pay assessments may result in a lien on the
delinquent property and legal action to collect the past due amounts.
While the Association prefers not to take
these actions, they are required under the terms of the Declaration.
I BOUGHT MY PROPERTY IN JANUARY, DO I HAVE TO PAY
A
FULL YEAR’S ASSESSMENT FOR THE FIRST YEAR?
No. Your yearly assessment is pro-rated starting on the
first day of the month
following the closing date. Thus, if you closed on your lot in January,
you would
owe 6 months assessments (February-July), or $77.50 at the current rate.
There will be at least one meeting of the Association
annually in May as specified in
the By-Laws or as established by the Board of Directors. However, special
meetings
of the Association may be called by the Board of Directors of the
Association or upon
the presentation of a petition signed by at least 67% of the Owners.
Notice of
meetings shall be given to the Owners.
DOES THE ASSOCIATION HAVE A SET OF
RULES/REGULATIONS?
Yes. See the Governing Documents section of this website.
Again, see the Governing Documents section of this website.
I BELIEVE A VIOLATION OF THE RULES/REGULATIONS
IS TAKING PLACE, WHAT DO I DO?
It is very likely that the violation has been reported to
the Board of Directors already
and a letter has been written to the owner in an effort to correct it.
But, if you notice
any violation, please don't hesitate to contact the Board of Directors in
writing.
Although there is not a
specific covenant/rule that addresses repainting your
house/trim, it is advisable that the approval of the Architectural
Committee be
obtained if the identical current color is to be changed. The reason for
this is to
avoid any possible "annoyance to the neighborhood" which might
occur, if for
instance, someone painted a "rainbow" on their house. An
"annoyance to the neighborhood" is covered by one of the
covenants/rules (14). All other modifications/improvements undertaken on
your home/lot must be approved by the Association's Architectural
Committee.
