Special Capital Assessment Loan Vote.

Note:  A YES vote does not increase your current 2023 HOA monthly fee, it simply cancels the Special Assessment expiration. 

Background: 
  • In July 2020, OT Owners voted to increase the monthly HOA fee by $0.15psf as a Special Capital Assessment. 
  • The additional assessment is used to pay off bank loans and fund Board approved infrastructure projects.
  • Per the 2020 vote, $0.07 of the $0.15 was to expire in September 2023 and $0.08 to expire in September 2030.
 
Current Status: 
  • As of January 1, 2023, the current bank loan total debt is $958,826. 
  • OT is on track to pay off the loan debt in 2030 as planned.
 
Area of Concern:   Increasing loan refinance rates and cost of infrastructure projects.
  • Our two largest loans, currently at 5% and 5.5%, are scheduled for refinance in July 2026. 
  • The loans will refinance at the Wall Street Journal prime rate, plus 1.5%.  
  • Due to the recent steep rise in interest rates, if our loans were refinanced today, that rate would be 9%.
  • In addition to the loan pay-off, the cost of capital projects (labor and goods) has increased dramatically over the past 2 years with increases likely to continue.   Maintaining the current HOA rate will offset the rising costs and continue to build our reserves. 
 
Benefits of Voting Yes:
  • Saves OT HOA an estimated $155,000 in bank interest by paying off the loans as soon as possible.
  • Increases the amount of capital funds available for future infrastructure requirements and builds our reserves to cover the rapidly increase of goods and services.
 
BALLOT:  Owners are asked to vote Yes or No. 
A YES vote moves the existing 2020 Special Capital Assessment fee of $0.15 ($0.07 plus $0.08) into our Regular Capital Monthly fee, instead of maintaining them as Special Capital Assessment fees that are scheduled to expire in 2023 and 2030.
