This assessment is going to negatively impact many home owners.
Home owners are saying:
- I have 10K in credit card debt.
- I am postponing buying a standing desk even if that is required for health reasons.
- I use a landscaping contractor that is much cheaper.
- I am retired and it is harder for me to make ends meet.
- I was not in a job for one and a half year.
- My HOA and club dues are 30% of my mortgage.
- I’ve invested in tools to maintain my yard. These tools will now be worth nothing.
- I enjoy working in my yard. It is calming. It helps my depression.
- I want to show my yard my way. It represents who I am.
Dear Board members – We are a community and we don’t want other community residents to face hardship due to our decisions. We missed other’s perspective and suppressed their voice when we made a decision of adding an additional permanent assessment to everyone. Let’s give them a fair chance by giving them a fair voting opportunity. Let’s be fair and kind to our fellow residents.
