[NJ], [TH] Special Assessment without Notice
Context, our HOA management has changed to a estates management service 3 months ago. Current Board of Directors is volunteer run. The reserve fund is empty as far as I'm aware.
Just received an email stating that they're conducting a special assessment over the summer for the following:
- Tree care and concrete work
- Drainage system improvements
- Driveway repairs
- Road and parking area upgrades
I was told by the estate manager over a call that this is abiding by state laws that allow the board to supercede any community vote on the matter. I frankly am not that familiar with the aforementioned laws, but I was under the impression whatever laws they're citing would be in the case of necessary emergency repairs around property damage, not things that are being mentioned like "parking area upgrades" or "tree and concrete work". Any thoughts would be welcome, thanks.
