Yearly dues:

Yearly dues is an estimated amount of funds that may be required to maintain the road. Insurance for the association is also part of the yearly dues. As we all know cost for materials keep rising and weather and nature affects what our cost are. The board does its best to foresee what our cost will be for the next year and what the future costs might be.

Snowplowing:

At this time there are no plans to hire a contractor to plow the road. The cost to plow the road will not be cheap! The estimate we have at this time is $8500 increase in insurance and $12000 - $15000 plowing cost. Several land owners have made arrangements with local people to have there access cleared as necessary on their own.

Tree cutting:

In the future tree growth into the roadways path will have to be addressed. Several owners clear sections of the road on their own time which helps all of us. If everyone cleared just their section of road this would help a great deal, but takes time. This will be a topic in the future.

Speed:

Speeding is becoming a problem. The association has the right to post speed limits on the roadway. This will also be address in the future.

over due association fees:

The association has the right to collect the maintenance fee from every owner in the association. This could involve placing of a lien against the land and then going to court to collect the overdue funds. Hopefully this action will never be required. Events happen in life that can effect a family financially. In the near future we hope to have a humanitarian bylaw to address this issue if it should arise and give the board the ability to offer options to a member in need. There are other options such as monthly payments being considered. The board has already discussed the issue several times and feels we do need options and intend on working on a bylaw to address this issue.

Damage to the road done by a owner or contractor:

Now that we have a association we can address this issue. There have been complaints concerning damage to the road by contractors or owners. This will require a bylaw to be drafted to address this. The board will be working on this bylaw .
