Hopefully everyone enjoyed the holiday season and that you winter enthusiasts have been able to partake in the winter activities that you enjoy at this time of year. New Years Eve in the neighborhood was quiet this year, I suspect because there were many who went further north to find snow for snowmobiling, however others did stay in the area and were slaying fish through the ice.
Now that we are through our first week of 2017, we are gearing up to send out our yearly association dues invoices…please check through your mail as they will be sent out around the first week of February. The dues remain the same as last year: $58.08 PER LOT. Everyone’s payments should be sent in AND received NO LATER THAN April 30, 2017. To avoid having a lien put on your lot/property we MUST have them by the April 30th due date. When you think of all that our beach and lakefront area offers to us as owners, $58.08 really is such a small fee to be able call that “ours”. Just a reminder that you have the option to pay via PayPal right here on our Lakewoood website! It’s as simple as going under the MEMBER INFORMATION tab at the top of the page and then click on PAY YOUR MEMBER ASSOCIATION DUES. You don’t even have to wait until you receive your billing statement….you can do it right now! It’s completely secure and safe and we have received many compliments in 2016 with the addition of this service. You don’t have to have an actual PayPal account to pay this way as PayPal will let you use your credit card. Let’s face it, we are all busy so a simple convenience like this ensures that your responsibility is taken care of and there is no risk of that pesky lien being put on your property. Remember that the due date using PayPal is ALSO April 30th! Lastly, don’t forget that all members must be “in good standing” with the association to use our beach and lakefront area and amenities….in other words, you must be paid IN FULL to receive a beach hang tag for your vehicle mirror. I want to give a shout out to everyone who properly displayed their hang tags in 2016. This is imperative to prevent your vehicle from being towed. I think we have all come a long way in being vigilant about this process. THANK YOU 🙂
Again, please watch your mailbox in the beginning of February for your statement. DON’T DELAY…PAY TODAY!!!
