Assessment Statements

Contributed by Sherry Watson, HOAMCO Community Manager

I wanted to let you know that prior to the start of the new year, White Mountain Vacation Village Recreational Subdivision Association via HOAMCO will be providing regular statements of account to homeowners instead of traditional coupon books.

This change stems from a modification to the existing law by Arizona Senate Bill 1531 which was passed by the legislature and signed by the governor this year.  This law becomes effective January 1, 2020.

The statements will be sent to homeowners at the same frequency the assessments are due. The new statements will include your current account balance and any immediate account history. In an effort to control mailing costs (which would increase to approximately $12,600 per year at current postage rates), your board has made a decision to make your assessments due quarterly. If assessments are paid in full by the 15^th of the last month in the quarter, no late fee will be assessed. HOAMCO will accept partial payments as long as the entire quarter is paid by the due date.

To comply with the law, HOAMCO will be issuing statements versus coupon books by January 1, 2020.  Statements will be mailed to the mailing address on file.  If you would like to receive the statements electronically, you can save your community money by switching to an electronic statement. To sign up for electronic statements please go to the URL: https://hoamco.opt-e-mail.com/signup and create an electronic delivery account. IMPORTANT: you will need your Unit Account Number which can be found on your current coupon,.

Your Association is asking for your participation in opting into electronic statements to help keep these costs to a minimum.  HOAMCO is partnering with your community to streamline this process, making it as easy as possible.  This cost to the Association can be reduced by up to 40% by electing to go paperless and will also save valuable resources.

HOAMCO values your community and wants to make this new implementation as seamless and easy as possible for you and your neighbors. If you have any questions please feel free to contact me at (928) 537-1067, Ext. 1404.

Fall Greetings – Be Prepared for Winter

Contributed by Ray Hedlund – Member, Advisory Committee

This is the time of year where folks begin to think about closing up for the winter. The in-ground shut-off valves sometimes become leaky and cantankerous when shut down. Sometimes they refuse to close properly and then after you have gone home you will receive a call to come back and fix it.

Plumbers charge bucks to dig it up and replace it. They even charge more when it’s cold. Often times, they do not have the shut-off tool so they charge even more. My advice; if you suspect you have a leaker or hard to operate valve is to replace your valve while it is good weather and rates can be shopped.

Two years ago, your HOA purchased a specialized water shut-off clamping tool. It can be checked out and used. Then replaced by you so the next person can use it. The tool is located on site in a double locked case. You can access it by key holders. Any one your Advisory Committee has a key and we now have a hide a key on premises.

Your Advisory Committee members currently are:

Donna Holick – Chair woman

Ray Hedlund

Mike Palma

Frankie Coulter

Disc Golf is Ready for Play

Please thank hard-working volunteers Duane, Jim and Charlotte led by Advisory Committee Chair, Donna Holick. They completed the installation of the catchers. The mats have been provided along with two sets of discs. The discs will be stored in the library in a blue sling bag. If you are interested in purchasing your own discs, please visit Big 5 Sporting Goods or Sportsman’s Wearhouse.

The course begins at the main entrance to the Festival Area.  Starting at Exercise Station 1 you will see Tee Mat #1.  Look ahead for the catcher with the yellow ring on the basket.  The course follows along the Festival hiking trails with each catcher near each exercise station with the next tee mat nearby.
