2. GHAD Manager Haley Ralston provided a very brief explanation as to the purpose of GHADs. She then presented the staff report regarding the proposed budget for the 2024/2025 fiscal year and staff’s proposal to reinstate the levy of assessment for residences within The Reserve development for the 2024/2025 fiscal year, since the reserve balance is expected to fall below the target reserve. Staff’s recommendation was to approve the proposed budget for the 2024/2025 fiscal year, reinstate the levy to $931.00 for residences within The Reserve development only, and maintain the inflation-adjusted assessment limit for the Hideaway and Hayward SoMi developments for 2024/2025 fiscal year.
There was no public comment on this item.
Board member Roche inquired whether staff had notified residents within The Reserve that the levy was going to be reinstated. Ms. Ralston indicated residents had been notified. Board member Syrop had a similar request to ensure that new residents within the development would be notified that they would incur an assessment.
