Updated Surplus Numbers

Updated Surplus Numbers
Updated Surplus Numbers: Actual surplus 2018 per audit was $85,163.
Boards 2011-2018 implemented policies and procedures with specific goals:
stabilize owner fees, achieve maintenance objectives and achieve annual budget surpluses.
Any surplus was retained by the association.
The board elected in fall 2018 decided to increase owner fees, even in view of a large potential surplus

  1. Norm, you are a very observant BLMH owner, with interesting views and many comments about how the board operates. If you have all this free time to attend all meetings and write about them in your blog, why don't you become proactive and run for a position on the board. Let's see how well you can do.
