chevron_rightWhat happens if I don't pay my assessment?
The maintenance and management services incurred by the Association are dependent upon timely receipt of the assessments due from each homeowner. Late payments will result in a late charge. Assessments are billed quarterly and payments are due on the first day of each quarter. Payment is considered late if not received before the first day of the second month of each quarter. (Please refer to Assessments at left.)
Assessments paid to the Sonterra POA vary according to the neighborhood in which you live and whether the Association provides additional maintenance services for your specific neighborhood. Aside from any special assessments, the remainder of your payment goes to on-premise security, the management company, expenses which are associated with maintaining Sonterra, and the general fund for future expenses.
These expenses include, but are not limited to: street sweeping, street repair, painting and repairing POA masonry and wrought iron walls, monthly landscaping costs, water bills -- irrigation and meter charges -- repairs to sprinkler systems, street light billing and bulb replacement on decorative street lights not maintained by CPS, maintenance of flag poles and replacement of flags, seasonal color plants and soil amendments at subdivision entries, labor for Christmas lights and light string replacement, landscape flood light replacement and repairs on flood fixtures and lines, gate maintenance, and legal fees for various issues - including delinquent residential and commercial dues.
