Amenity Bill
 

Just got my bill and noticed that my Amenity Bill went up $10.00.

Anyone else see this?

When we moved here three years ago, it was $135. Then it went to $140. This month's bill is $150.

Please remind me of the rule again. Is it that it can only go up as much as the CPI or is there a set percentage?

Hey Doc, I was under the impression from reading the closing docs four years ago, that the increase is tied to the CPI, but there is a cap. Maybe somebody will jump in and set us both straight.

If I recall correctly, it is tied to the CPI and can increase annually.

Ours started out at $145 when we moved in at the end of 2012. It has increased twice and is now a little over $150.

Also, Doc...if you move to another house in The Villages your amenity fee will be whatever the prevailing rate is at that time, not what you were paying before.

Started at $135 9/12 now $145. The Villages web site now states $145.

When I moved into my home in Silver Lake last year it was 145. A few months ago it went up to 153. I called about it and was told Amenities increase here every 3 years from the date your house was built.

Mine went down. District 7.
This was posted in the Sun I believe in the Legals. Depended on what District you lived in and what Special projects were done or being planned
in each District.

Mine went down by 6 cents! Party tonight!!!!!

What is CPI?

Consumer Price Index

Has the CPI gone up 7% recently?

The Deed Restrictions vary by unit. You can check at the following website. The language for increasing the amenities fee should be in there.

Village Community Development Districts

I just moved into my home on 6/1/2015 and it is $145 per month.
