You are correct regarding the temporary 5 year assesment now going into its eight year. It has gotten lost in the weeds and everyone now excepts its and only focuses on any new increase to our assessments, So if one peels back the onion and really looks at the increase to the budget it is really $146.00 plus thepropsed $22.00 increase for a total of $168.00 that the GM and Board gets to use. Now some will argue that the $146.00 is not increase since it has been in the budget for the last seven years but like you said it was suppose to stop and has not. So IMO you are right the budget should not be increased but reduced significantly to the tune of the unauthorized assessment. |

For reference, the above message is a reply to a message where: Joe: Why do we, the Ocean Pines membership, always focus on the minutia? A new food truck at $55,000 is equal to approximately $6.51 of the proposed assessment in the 2016-2017 budget. Peanuts. Silly yes, but peanuts when compared to the real problems. The 8th year of the slush fund in the amount of $1,233,992.00 cost each and every one of us $146.00 in our assessment. I have not heard one peep about the proposed $261,024.00 increase in payroll, or $30.88 from each of us. That increase is a budget to budget increase and is really well over a $320,000.00 increase from last year's actual payroll. That is almost $38.00 from each of us. Not a peep. There is $75,000.00 in the proposed budget to study a new police station, but not one dime to fix the 43 year old and completely failed HVAC system at our long neglected Country Club. Wow! Marty |
