Pool Membership FAQ
-
Do I need to purchase a Pool Membership?
-

Why are Pool Memberships even a thing?

Our neighborhood consists of homes that fall within four different categories​
-
Eagles Ridge Single Family HOA - Own the pool and maintain this website​
-
Eagles Ridge Estates HOA - Eligible for Pool Memberships - Do not own the pool, but we have long-term aspirations to merge with and believe it is mutually beneficial to share use of the pool
-
Some single family homes that due to a legal/clerical error are not in any HOA - Have no option to use the pool until they agree to join Eagles Ridges Estates HOA
-

Why $275?​​
- ​The developer has informed us that they are going to be collecting dues from Eagles Ridge Estates HOA members in 2024. The most recent estimate we received was $250. We do not know what the final number will be. We had to make our budget to get figures out to our members. Our members are paying $525. If the developer collects $250, then Eagles Ridge Estates Members would pay a total of $525 should they choose to buy Pool Memberships. If the developer decides to collect a different amount, Eagles Ridge Single Family HOA will not reassess the amount for the Pool Memberships. It will remain $275.
-
The budget in 2024 is designed to break even. While we would like to build more reserves, we feel the members that have been paying for the last number of years deserve a break and should not have to continue to bear the full weight of building reserves that will be enjoyed by a much larger neighborhood once a merger is completed, or a permanent working agreement can be made with the boards of the two HOAs.​ For budgeting purposes we conservatively estimated we will sell 50 Pool Memberships. We sold 51 in 2023.
-
It is fair for the costs to remain equal as the vast majority of our expenses are dedicated to the pool, entryway maintenance, and operating costs (which include invoicing and communicating with Eagles Ridge Estates HOA members).
-
We will not have any access to the money collected by the developer. The developer making this decision caused us to have to increase dues paid by our own members.
-
Why the extra $100 for people that chose not to purchase in 2023?​​
-
We cannot create a situation where Eagles Ridge Estates HOA members can choose year to year whether or not to purchase memberships. This makes it impossible to budget.
-
Eagles Ridge Single Family HOA members do not have an option to pay dues.
-
Eagles Ridge Estate HOA members that paid in 2023 helped build a $14,000+ surplus.​
-
$100 was chosen in 2024 because the intent is not to punish those who chose not to purchase in 2023, but to make them aware of the policy moving forward. Starting in 2025 the fee will increase to double the cost of a Pool Membership.
-
-
Will there be a cap set on the number of Pool Memberships that will be sold in 2024?
-
No. The long-term desire is for the entire neighborhood to be merged into one HOA.​
