Such payment must be made before November 15 or interest will be charged through December 31 of the succeeding year. If you decide not to prepay the assessment before the date given above the rate of interest that will apply is 4.00 percent per year.

The total amount of the proposed assessment is $42,552. Written or oral objections will be considered at the meeting.
