Treasurer’s Report • Maple Woods Association Financial Position as of March 2013 • Delinquencies 12.62% • Cash • Reserves - $161,345 • Legal Expense Review • Cost Sharing Agreement Review
Legal Expenses • Cost categories • Cost Share due diligence • Factual responses to Maple Ridge mailings • Collections • FB / Homeowner legal assertions and allegations • ACC non-compliance / challenges to CC&R mandated ACC process / Reestablishing CC&R compliant ACC process • ACC research for homeowner ACC requests / issues
Cost Sharing Agreement • Maple Ridge is reimbursing Maple Woods for section 2.1 or the parks • Maple Ridge is NOT reimbursing Maple Woods for section 2.1.2 Maple Ridge Drive and Maple Ridge Way SE (including main entrance) • Maple Ridge disputed Cost Share amounts for 2006 & 2007 cost share invoices and subsequently unilaterally reinterpreted the cost share agreement • De Spain Letter June 2, 2008 • Mark Olson email est. 2008 • Let’s review the impact
Cost Sharing Agreement • …from previous page… • It is mathematically impossible for MRH to pay a larger share than Maple Woods • Under Cost Sharing Agreement • Maple Woods 53.78% • MRH 46.22% • The disparity is even larger with MRH reinterpretation of the Cost Sharing Agreement • MRH reinterpretation of Cost Sharing Agreement • Maple Woods 78.7% • MRH 24.3%
Cost Sharing Agreement • Maple Woods Homeowners should be paying $53,833 instead of $102,837 • Maple Woods Homeowners are paying $49,004 more due to MRH reinterpretation of the Cost Sharing Agreement
Cost Sharing Agreement • Compare $23,397 one time due diligence and communication of facts to $72,004 non-payment of shared costs that are the burden of Maple Woods Homeowners • Net difference $48,607
Cost Sharing Agreement • To accurate assess the impact of the “property swap” option we must compare capital costs • Maple Woods capital costs are based on the recent reserve study completed in 2012 • Key capital items need to be converted to current year 2013 dollars (pv = fv / (1 + rate)^nper) • Parks and playground equipment (from reserve study in 2027 dollars) • Boulevard Privacy fence (from reserve study in 2022 dollars) • Recommended Boulevard Privacy fence maintenance (reserve study recommendation every 3-5 yrs in 2013 dollars)
Cost Sharing Agreement • The “property swap” solution does not account for the large disparity in capital expenses • Post Property Swap Capital Expenses Maple Woods - $320,721 • Post Property Swap Capital Expenses Maple Ridge - $21,507 • In it’s current (without capital expense consideration) is not in Maple Woods Homeowners best interests • Fiduciary responsibility does not permit the Maple Woods Board to support this solution, in this form
Cost Sharing Agreement • Status • Maple Ridge has decline fair and equitable binding arbitration
Committee Reports • ACC • Established a review process for violations. • ACC Committee reviews the notes forwarded to us by ATC before issuing violation letters • To date most violation letters were sent the homeowners have corrected the problem quickly • There remain homes with larger issues and will be handled according to our CC&R’s and Rules and Regulations • Its spring time and we are receiving more and more ACC requests for improvements to homes and yards. We anticipate this to only get busier as summer approaches
