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

Average fees per owner prior to 2019:
RED indicates the consequences had boards continued the fee policies prior to 2010,
BLUE indicates actual fees. These moderated when better policies and financial controls were put in place by boards

Better budgeting could have resulted in lower fees

    "This break occurred after the hydrant flushing of May 11, 2011." So Norm, got any idea how many water breaks we have had after hydrant flushing. Should it be something to worry about.

    Yes, there is a cause and effect relationship. Not 1:1 which means I can't say that a line break occurs every time hydrants are flushed. But it seems that a break is a predictable event.

    I'm interested in determining if some of these breaks are preventable. To do so would require more information e.g., what procedures are followed for flushing, etc.
