FAQs

The Association provides comprehensive maintenance and services detailed here.

Association dues cover the cost of maintenance activities and services of the Association.  In addition, part of the Association dues are set aside in a reserve fund for major maintenance and repair activities that must be completed periodically.

The assessment is the amount due from each homeowner to cover the operating expenses of the common areas and provide for reserve funds for replacement of common facilities in future years. Your assessments are due quarterly. Statements are sent from the Facility Manage as a reminder of the amount due. 

Budgets are developed by the Board of Directors and adjusted periodically to meet anticipated expenses. The Board allocates costs to cover expenses for each individual unit. The condition of all assets of the Association are carefully monitored each year to determine if our budget is adequate to assure proper maintenance and expected services. The Board of Directors may approve an increased budget which may increase your assessment. You can view the 2018-2019 budget here.

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. In addition, the Association may charge interest and/or proceed with a lien or a foreclosure proceeding on your property for nonpayment of assessments. Please refer to the Point Breeze bylaws for more specific details.

Point Breeze has rules which have been adopted by the Board of Directors and in some cases are included in the Association bylaws.

When not in use, grills should be properly stored, not left in the yard. Grills are to be used in the owner's deck or in the backyard and are not permitted in front yards.

A reserve study is done to assess all of the major capital systems in the association. It evaluates how much life is left and how much it is likely to cost when they wear out. From that information, the reserve study projects how much money the association should set aside each year to have enough funds to replace those items when they wear out. The reserve is updated annually with the budget. The current reserve fund can be viewed here.

Point Breeze welcomes domestic pets and expects pet owners to act responsibly to ensure their pets are under control. Pets must be kept on a leash for their safety and the safety of others.

 

Pets are allowed on leash in all common areas at any time.

 

Pets may not be on the beach or in the swim area at any time other people are present. If a pet is already at the beach when people arrive, the owner should immediately remove the pet from the beach and swim area. Because our beaches are a highly desirable shared amenity at Point Breeze, be sure your pet does not dig or in any way cause damage to the beach. 

 

Pets are permitted off leash only in the designated areas behind the boat yard and behind the burn pile off Sunset Point Road. 

 

As good pet owners, please know that it is your responsibility to clean up after your pet at all times. For the health and safety of the lake, forest, groundwater, and our residents, please be courteous and scoop the poop! 

 

Pets may not chained outdoors and installation of overhead cable and pulleys is not permitted. 

 

Because being accountable for your pet is so important to the community, any violation of these rules will result in a minimum $50 fine.

As a self-governed non-profit organization, Point Breeze depends on the active involvement of unit owners. You can volunteer to participate in a committee or run for a position on the Board of Directors.  You may also wish to organize and participate in various social activities to meet and enjoy the company of your neighbors.

 

Learn more about Point Breeze Committees by contacting the committee chairperson or Board liaison to learn more about the committee and when it meets. Committee members are appointed each year at the Annual Meeting. 

If you see someone not following the rules, ideally you should approach the individual to let them know of your concern and remind them of the rule to be followed. In the event you are not comfortable doing so, you should let the Facility Manager know of your concern, either in person, by phone, via email, or the website contact form.
