Hello Lake of the Woods Community Club Members (HOA)!
At the Annual Membership Meeting on November 4, 2023, the membership ratified (approved) the Annual Budget for 2024.
Per the Membership vote for the Budget for 2024 our Homeowners’ general and special assessments will be a total of $605.87) a year per lot. The yearly assessments consist of Community Operations expenses $ 278.98 (includes $50 for security), $286.89 for our Water Systems expenses and $40.00 ($16 Community Reserve and $24 for Water Reserve) per year per lot for the next year to reach our Reserve Fund Goal of full funding in five years. This year’s assessment is only $11.07 per month more than 2023. The cost of materials purchased, insurances and the need to hire more contractors has impacted the budget. Keeping our assessment lower than other communities in the area has been due to the hundreds of volunteer hours of our Board Members and community volunteers who take on work projects instead of the HOA having to hire people. More help is needed!
The 2024 homeowner assessments go into effect January 1, 2024. The assessment payment options are annually ($605.87) or paid monthly at $50.49 per month. Included in this packet are instructions on how to pay your assessments either annually or monthly. (See back page of this letter). Not sure if your 2023 assessment are currently paid up, contact HOACS for more information.
We are beginning year four of five from our current Reserve Study. Our reserve Funds are in addition to our operating and maintenance budget. Because the major maintenance, repair and replacements costs for our water system are significant, but infrequent, it is not practical to include them in our annual budget. A copy of our Reserve Study is on the community website at www.Lakeofthewoodskpn.com.
Thank you.
