To those who pay their assessments on time, thank you. Some of our homeowners are expecting you to pay for their lawn care. I hope you don?’t mind. They certainly don?’t. They prefer that you pay for pool maintenance, road maintenance, gate maintenance and landscaping while they sit back and reap the benefits. About 10% of San Michelle?’s homeowners are greater than 90 behind in paying their assessments. This represents over $8000 in uncollected payments or enough money to pay the landscapers for the entire neighborhood for several months.
Maintaining a community is expensive. For instance, sealing the streets - approximately $12,000, repairing the gate - $500, new pool furniture - $4,000, in addition to insurance, water, electricity, phone, landscape service and other operational costs. Your assessments are the only source of income for the community. Therefore, when your neighbor doesn?’t pay on time, you get to take up the slack. But, that?’s ok, I know you don?’t mind.
