Planning for the FuturePlanning for the Future The situationThe situation
• Legends is 15 years old; maturity brings increased costs.• Past budgets were set to just meet the next year’s needs.• Current reserves are only about $15,000 (very low).• Annual dues were $236 in 1997. • Dues are now $370 – a 3% increase per year since 1997.• Must prepare for future costs that will occur for certain:
– Replace fencing bordering all common areas and access paths– Continuous replacement of irrigation pumps and pipe repairs– Cost to maintain mature trees and replace dead/dying landscaping– Repair walkways

Planning for the FuturePlanning for the Future Funding reserve accounts Funding reserve accounts (estimates)(estimates)
• Replace iron fencing: $182,000 (25 year life)– $23/year (per homeowner)
• Replace wood fencing: $104,000 (15 year life)– $22/year (per homeowner)
• Replace pumps: $8,000 (4 year life)– $6/year (per homeowner)
• Increased landscape & irrigation maintenance: $3,000/yr– $9/year (per homeowner)
IMPACT: Dues would increase by $60/year to perpetually fund new reserve accounts ($430/year from current $370/year)

Iron Fence ProjectIron Fence ProjectHistoryHistory
• Refurbishment plans started in 2006• Divided into five phases• First phase started in 2007• Contractor significantly under-estimated their costs
– Honored contracted price for Phase 1; declined to complete work
• Payment: 50% HOA, 50% each homeowner with iron fence• Very time consuming to manage and at time contentious
![Page 12: 2012 Legends HOA Annual Meeting March 14, 2012. Agenda Introductions –Guests: Summer Lawns and Anvil Fence 2011 Year in Review 2012 Action Plan Membership.](https://reader037.fdocuments.in/reader037/viewer/2022110208/56649de75503460f94ae0a51/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Option #1Option #1Special assessmentSpecial assessment

– Immediately collects necessary funds– One-time expense (until next time needed)
• Concerns:– Very challenging to gain approval– Major expense during difficult economic times
• Note: Annual dues would still need to increase to $430 to start funding reserves for subsequent replacements.

Split-cost modelSplit-cost model
• Split cost between HOA and each homeowner with fencing.• HOA would fund its portion via dues or special assessment
funding method.• Each homeowner with fencing would pay their portion of the
fence at the time of installation (percent to be determined).
Pros• HOA members pay less• Those with fence pay their
share for their part ownership
Cons• 22% homeowners pay 50% for fence that 100% enjoy • Homeowner has no choice or control over their fence• Difficult to manage (71 separate negotiations)
