Members can pay all fees up-front as one lump sum or may “pay ahead” for the year, to create a credit balance. Statements will not be mailed if no outstanding balance is due. 

We take care in preparing the statements and verifying that one has been sent to each property owner. Once the statements leave the office, there is no way to verify that they reach their destination. Please take note of these due dates. Statements are sent 3-4 weeks prior to those dates. If you have not received a statement, please notify us. Non-receipt of a statement is not considered a valid excuse for not paying timely and late fees will still be added to your account. Put the dates on your calendar, IT IS YOUR RESPONSIBILITY.
