Discussion on Legislated Minimum Funding
Legislation mandates a minimum level of funding for the CRF.
Based on value of operating budget
If CRF balance is less than 25% of operating budget the strata must contribute the lesser of:
10% of operating budget value
OR
Sufficient funds to raise CRF balance to 25% of operating budget
![Page 36: Depreciation Reports & The Strata Property Act of British ...](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022012721/61b34a31a5c7b767a56bd500/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
