There is no excuse that would justify this at all, for this again I apologize. Now to answer your questions: 1.  Why is the HOA's Replacement Fund balance only at 42.35% of the recommended fund balance, as 09/30/14?  Has the situation improved at all in the past year?  What risks are homeowners facing because of this significant level of under-funding?In 2014 you had the following work done and it was paid from your reserves account: Painting of the community - $35,800.00Pool / Spa heater replacement - $4,274.00Roof Work - $19,655.00 Total of $59,729.00 that was taken from the reserves to cover these expenses. On the last reserve Study the 42.35% has come up to 62%. The homeowner’s are at no risk with the 62% funded units have sold with no problems at all in the community.  On your second question: 2.  For the year ended 09/30/15, the financial statements list $64,008 in assessments received from homeowners.  If there are 43 residential units, and each unit was supposed to be due an assessment of $240/month last year, then it seems that the revenue from assessments should have been $123,840.  (I.e., 43 units x $240 x 12 months.)  Why was the amount collected so far below $123,840?If you look at the page 5 of the Statement of Revenue Expenses and Association Funds you will notice that yes $64,008 was collected on the assessments and you will also notice that this amount is under the Operating Fund on the other Colum you will notice the amount of $59,832 that is under the Replacement Fund these two amounts equal the total assessments collected for the amount of $123,840.00. The $64,008 went into the operating account to cover all the monthly expenses and the $59,832.00 was the amount that went into the reserves account. Both these amounts total the $123,840.00 collected in assessments. Please let me know if this answers your questions and concerns. And again please accept my apologies for not getting back to you on your first email. This is not the way we operate this one is totally on me. Please let me know if you have any other questions that I might be able to help you with.  Sincerely, [redacted]Account Manager, CCAM www.huntingtonwest.comBus: [redacted] ext.
