*The 2012 rate will not be set until the Association members have voted on a final budget in February. A quirk in the bylaws prevents us from having the vote in November or December. The annual and first quarter payment is due on or before the February 10. Anyone paying $876 before February 10th, 2012 will be eligible a $60.00 early payment discount.


Infrastructure Planning and Reserves

The Association established dedicated financial accounts for the capital reserves and the emergency reserves in 2009 to prevent commingling of funds. The capital reserves are for future repairs as specified in the reserve study. The emergency reserves are self insurance for those assets of the Association that cannot be insured by commercial policy.

Reserve Study A reserve study was completed and approved by the board in 2010 and approved by a vote of owners in January 2011 (96% to 4%). Currently the capital reserves are below the target balances outlined in the Reserve Study. The owners voted in 2010 to set the annual reserve rate at $5,000 year. A vote to raise the reserve rate to $8,000 in 2011 was defeated by a vote of 34% to 66%.



Painting Program

The Association paints and completes siding repairs on roughly 13% of the homes in the community each year. In 2009, the owners voted (87% to 23%) to lengthen the repainting cycle from five to eight years in an effort to clear up a backlog of 58 homes that were past due. Starting in 2011, siding repairs were expanded to include the back of homes as well as the front (vote 64% to 36%). "Hms past due" refers to homes that were due to be painted, but were not.

State of the Association Report

A State of the Association was prepared in 2009 to explain to owners of financial condition of the Association. The key points of this report were at the Association had been deficit spending for number of years, the Association's reserves had reached critically low levels, the Association's painting and siding repair program was significantly backlogged, and the Association had claimed tax exemptions it was not entitled to. As a result of this analysis, the owners have taken action to remedy the situation, which included increasing the assessment rate, setting up dedicated reserves, insuring the physical property, restructuring the paint and repair program, and changing its tax policy.

Federal and State Taxes

The Beverly Oaks Homeowners Association files federal taxes as an IRS 528 corporation. The IRS describes "528" as a "quasi not-for-profit" class - a for profit corporation with some special considerations. The primary consideration is that the Association can have dues income without paying tax on it. Beverly Oaks has elected this status since 1983. The Association does not have a 501(c) (4) not-for-profit, Federal tax exempt designation letter. The Association has not been issued a sales tax exemption from the state. The Association is not exempt from paying property taxes.

The Association does qualify franchise tax exemption and filed for this exemption in 1987. The Association is required to report to the State every four years to maintain this status.

The Association pays property tax on the roadway, storage garages, cul-de-sac gardens and mailbox peninsulas. The property has been given a nominal valuation of $22,000 in 2009 even though the improvements have a replacement cost of $1,500,000 (road/water lines/sewer).

FEDERAL TAX FORMS 1099 should be prepared and mailed to all contractors by January 30;

FEDERAL TAX FORMS 1096 should be prepared and mailed to IRS listing all 1099’s mailed by January 30;

FEDERAL TAX FORM 1120H should be prepared and mailed to IRS March 15.



Audits

The association shall, as a common expense, annually obtain an independent audit of the records. Copies of the audit must be made available to the unit owners.

An audit required by this subsection shall be performed by a certified public accountant if required by the bylaws or a vote of the board of directors or a majority vote of the members of the association voting at a meeting of the association.
