Default Re: amenity fees

JohnZ and others:
I've just paid my Sep '07 fees.
They're based on the date I selected my lot, not when I closed on the completed house. For those buying a pre-owned or a new house, I suppose the closing date may apply.
The statement clearly says that the increase from last year is based on the Consumer Price Index (CPI). It was all of 2.4%. I think that's reasonable, especially when virtually everything else goes up more than that!
I remain convinced that the amenity fee is a deal. While I don't know how much folks in neighboring communities pay (such as Spruce Creek Country Club, Stonecrest, Harbor Hills, Plantation, etc.), I'd be willing to bet 1) they're more, and 2) they increase more each year!
