Dues/
Membership
It all started when…
Ball Homes, Inc., Developer of North Ridge Estates, built and sold each of these 124 units. Each deed of a unit has specific language to that fact of the Homeowner Association. When Ball Homes sold the 124th unit; they turned the HOA over to the homeowners in North Ridge Estates. The HOA membership requirement does not go away when a unit changes homeownership; it passes to the new homeowner(s).
- The Homeowner Association consists of 124 homeowner units. By owning a unit, the homeowner(s) are allocated a vote in matters of the HOA. 
- The Homeowner(s) of a Unit is responsible for paying annual dues. The HOA dues are currently at $95.00 per year. 
- A fee of $10.00 is assessed for late payments. If the dues are not paid, an attorney will be retained with the potential of a lien place on that unit for failure of homeowner(s) to pay dues. And HOA dues, late fees, and legal fees become the responsibility of the home owner. 
- The Fiscal Year runs from July 1 through June 30. 
- In selling of a homeowner’s unit the HOA dues are/shall be prorated at the day of closing. The seller is responsible for dues from July 1 to the closing date of that given fiscal year. The buyer is responsible for dues beginning on the closing date till June 30th of that respective fiscal year. 
- The HOA Board of Directors is made up of fellow homeowners. Their term of service is for 2 years. The HOA Board of Directors members are not paid for their service; nor are any sub-committees thereof. 
- The HOA Dues cover the following listed expenses of the Association: mowing, weed eating, and edging sidewalks of the three common areas of the Association, insurance, taxes on common areas, legal matters, and miscellaneous items.
