Association fees are collected from each owner to meet the expenses set forth in your association's budget presented at the Annual Meeting. Budgeted expenses typically include common area landscape maintenance, repair and maintenance of pools, utilities, capital improvements desired by the Association, and services to the owners, such as trash collection.
Owners may elect to pay their Association Fees via check, credit card, or have the amount withdrawn from their bank account. If you have a coupon book or statement, mail a check along with your coupon or statement stub directly to the bank address shown. (The bank cannot accept payments without the coupons or stubs.) Owners may also apply to have their payments withdrawn automatically from their bank accounts. This eliminates the inconvenience of checks, coupons or timeliness of payment. Access the PAY Assessments link once you are logged in.
