The annual dues for the Mansion Farm Community were established at $150/yr in 1997 when the community was being developed. The Board has been faced with 2016 and years past expenses on a 1997 income. We have had numerous complaints regarding lack of and quality of maintenance. The increase will allow us to hire better quality service providers. The Board has also performed many maintenance projects e.g. Sign repair, cleaning, replacement, Community Clean up Day and fence rail replacement.
Our Treasurer has done an outstanding job of collecting overdue payments and has gone far beyond reasonable efforts in doing so. On occasion this has required legal action as has Deed Restriction enforcement.
The increase to $200/yr will enable the Board to maintain our community in a manner that will keep it a Premier Community. This increase amounts to a very reasonable approximately $17/month.
