Long-Term Finance Plan:
Discussion held amongst Committee and property owners regarding raising adequate funds to properly maintain our road system. It has become clear after extensive analysis that the current assessment rate does not generate adequate revenue for the quality maintenance of our road system. Committee currently has two proposals underway with a proposed long-range budget plan. The plan consists of two resolutions to amend the Road Agreement. The first call for an increase of the annual assessment to $400 per benefit unit. The second calls for a one-time special assessment of $1,600 per benefit unit. The Committee strongly supports these amendments and recommends their passage. A 65% majority vote is required for passage.
