DRCHOA Dues

• Semi-Annual Dues for 2012 are $486.00 payable January 1st and July 1st.


1. Dues are payable semi-annually on January 1st and July 1st. A notice of dues assessments is mailed or hand-carried to each homeowner one month in advance of the due date.


2. A late fee of 10 percent is assessed if the dues are not received by January 15th or July 15th. Deliquency beyond those dates may require the Board to take legal action such as a lien on the property and/or interest on the outstanding debt from its original date. If a homeowner cannot pay on time, the Board recommends making payment arrangements with the Association Treasurer.


3. The Board has authority to increase dues annually by an amount up to the increase in the Consumer Price Index (CPI). Any increase above the CPI must be presented to the Association membership for a vote. The Board is also authorized to levy special assessments for capital improvements or emergency expenditures.
