This is only a CAP increase at this time. The last time they increased the cap was 14 years ago, and the yearly increases finally caught up to that cap. They made the CAP large enough again to be able to suffice for several upcoming smaller increases. Every time they send out a required notice, it costs $39,000 .... So by making the cap large they won't have to send out a notice for several years again. There will be a small increase coming up, though ... As there has been needed all along ( like all other expenses that go up through the years). The letter did not explain any of this well.
