• A 2024 budget assumption is not the current bill

  Historical

  The ten-year plan prepared April 25, 2024 assumes $1,750 per residence across 143 residences. It includes a 2026 projection, but does not establish a 2026 invoice or GST treatment. May 2024 minutes record approval under the treasurer report; May 2025 minutes say the budget and ten-year plan were reviewed. Obtain the current approved assessment before relying on the planning figure.

• Ask what happened to the planned capital work

  Historical

  The April 2024 plan schedules pump replacements in 2026, 2028 and 2030, alongside island dock/electrical work and later equipment replacement.

Request current financial statements, project outcomes and the updated reserve plan before assessing future costs.

The 2023 welcome package identifies three organizations: LBRA for Lake Bonaventure homeowners, LBHA for Lake Bonavista access, and the community association whose memberships are open to anyone. Verify current eligibility and accounts with each organization.

• The welcome package distinguishes LBRA from Lake Bonavista Homeowners Association, which provides Lake Bonavista access, and the separate community association's recreation programmes.
• Do not treat a Bonaventure account as confirmation that another association's dues are paid or its household access requirements are satisfied.
