Special Assessment community payments
Special Assessment community payments
Can anyone confirm that I am correct in thinking that it is legal for a President/Committee to take a special payment from residents without a vote, as long as it is no more than 1qtr's community fees in any given year?

FROM DAVID SEARL
FOR PAULA
The President of the Community is a servant of the assembled owners who vote at the AGM.
1. In principle, he may not make any special charges which the AGM has not authorised him to make.
2. When necessary and urgent, he may authorise expenses which he must later justify to the AGM. He can be held accountable for these expenses.
Good luck with it, David Searl

Re: Special Assessment community payments
Okay, thank you David. Unfortunately this one is not as I expected. I have heard of other communities even taking extra payments from owners without a vote. Presumably they are on shaky ground?
I wanted to take a small extra payment from owners to cover what will be a large bill next year. Thinking that splitting it into two special payments one this year and one next would make it easier on people. To wait for the AGM to vote will defeat the object, never mind have to come up with plan B.
