Paa-Ko Communities Sewer Association – March Update from President Mike Boice

All documentation has been submitted to the State of New Mexico fulfilling the requirements for moving forward with the Paa-Ko WWTP (Wastewater Treatment Plant) computer and software update.

The State of New Mexico website posted the notice with no protests.  The Sewer Association will be able to sign the $40K loan and move forward to place the Purchase Order as early as next week.  This means the update should be complete by mid-April!

As far as the $50K grant for engineering services to evaluate the system and define the upgrades that are necessary, we have released the RFP.  Seven different providers have responded.  A meeting is scheduled for all bidders on Friday March 15, 2024, to brief them on the sewer system as it now exists.  Bidders must have their proposals in by May 1, 2024.  This will be followed by source selection and a Purchase Order should be issued by June 1.

There have been a few reports of loose dogs at the top of Canyon Ridge on several occasions - no owner in sight.  An Airedale and a Sheepdog. These dogs bark at other walkers with dogs, causing them to try and take a different route because of the uncertainty of what the two dogs will do.  

This is a reminder that dogs must be in a fenced yard or on leash when outside of the house.

Reminders and Clarifications

Regarding Your 2024 HOA Assessment Bill

Please remember that the Paa-Ko Community HOA and Sewer Associations are completely separate entities with individual accounts and distinctly different relationships with HOAMCO. To prevent the confusing comingling of deposits, make sure the correct HOAMCO account number is referenced on your checks or electronic transfers. It is prudent to mail HOA and Sewer payments separately to Nevada. The following paragraphs pertain only to your 2024 annual HOA Assessment bill/s, not to your Sewer Association bill.

On your HOAMCO HOA invoice we neglected to make clear that, while you can resolve the entire annual bill in one payment, the current invoice shows your assessment charges in semi-annual payments since the majority of the community historically preferred this approach. If you elect semi-annual payments, there is a 30-day window during each payment period before late fees apply. The annual 2024 HOA assessment is $310 (paid by everyone.) If applicable, the Amenities (recreation) assessment is $375, and the annual dues for Gated is $790.

Please see the attached document for more details on semi-annual payments. Additionally included is information about on-line payments or how to set-up Auto-Pay.  Go to READ MORE and then to DOCUMENTS to see the attachment.
