NEWS & NOTICE OF MATTERS

First Amendment of the Amended and Combined Condominium Declaration of Quail Run.

Homeowners were mailed information regarding business of Quail Run Association on November 1st, 2024.  The information is a proposed
First Amendment of the Amended and Combined Condominium Declaration of Quail Run.  This business was included at the Annual Homeowner’s meeting on November 20, 2024. The Board of Directors' would like to that everyone who attended or returned their proxy in absence. 

The First Amendment of the Amended and Combined Condominium Declaration of Quail Run addresses insurance requirements of the Association.  As time has changed, we like others, have experienced custom policy quotes due to ambiguous articles found in most HOA governing documents. This results in surplus markets and premiums that have been at an all-time high. For equality to all owners, the declarations must define responsibility of our insurance needs as a collective and as an individual.

Please look for the mailing which includes a COUNTERPART FOR NOTARY VERIFICATION. The Board of Director's request that you return your notarized consent as soon as possible.   A copy of the form can be found under FORMS, GOVERNING DOCUMENTS and as an attachment to the calendar event on November 20, 2024.

MASTER INSURANCE PREMIUM PRICES

The 2024-2025 Master Insurance Premium is $601,086.29. Last year the same policy was $637,230.30 and the prior was $344,542.56.  Insurance costs for HOA's nation wide is the same while coverage decreased. Some HOAs are not being able to acquire a policy to cover community liability and losses. Colorado’s recent history of fires, hail damage and windstorms has taken a toll on homeowners specifically in HOA's. Then there is the issue that with home appreciation in Colorado going up and up, the amount of insurance required by the HOA increases and the affect is upward pressure on premiums. Operating costs in trash removal, water, lighting, gas, snow damage removal and landscape needs have increased statewide and all material and labor costs all will be absorbed by the HOA. Last year’s assessment is simply not enough to pay for the upcoming year.

Maintenance of community property: The clubhouse, pool, tennis court, and other amenities must be maintained, and of course the cost continues to go up. HOA's  have maintenance responsibilities for painting , replacing trees, street maintenance, home roofs, cleaning the grounds, and general building repairs : these costs continue to rise rapidly. The HOA's budget proposal will reflect cost increases for 2024-2025 at a 9% increase respectfully. 

BUDGET 
The Board of Directors has adopted the proposed budget for the November 1, 2024 thru October 31,2025 fiscal year. Beginning on November 1, 2024 the Association will increase the monthly assessment by $ 40.00 to $480.00. The 2024-2025  budget has been ratified until further notice. It is your responsibility to notify the office with any change to your mailing address, phone number or email for future mailings and communication.
