ABOUT THE GOLF VIEW HOMEOWNERS' ASSOCIATION
ROLE OF THE HOMEOWNERS' ASSOCIATION
The Golf View Homeowners' Association is a Minnesota non-profit corporation formed in 1992.
​
Its purposes are to (1) maintain the ponds, the monument, and the fountain, (2) mow the strip of land adjacent to Old Rockford Road, and (3) enforce the Covenants. The HOA assesses and collects fees sufficient to pay for resources to effect its purposes.
Homeowners are members of the Golf View Homeowners’ Association by virtue of the ownership of their home. The HOA Covenants are recorded in the Office of the Hennepin County Recorder, and each lot in the development is subject to the Covenants and associated governing documents. There are 54 member houses within the Golf View HOA.
​
All land within the geographic boundaries of Golf View Estates, including the ponds, is privately owned. The streets are owned and maintained by the City of Plymouth. The only assets of the Association are the fountain, the aerators, and the monument. The HOA does not maintain insurance.
OPERATING STRUCTURE
The HOA is governed by a board of directors comprised of resident volunteers. Any resident interested in serving on the board should contact the board president.
Due to the size of the Golf View development, its lack of common facilities, the limited role of the HOA, and residents' desire to minimize costs, the HOA does not use a professional management company. The duties of the HOA are performed by resident volunteers. Therefore, it is incumbent upon Golf View residents to pay the annual bill promptly, and to respect the limited role of their neighbors in their capacity as volunteers.
​
FINANCIAL
HOA dues for 2025 are $260. Dues are billed annually in April or early May for the term May 1 through April 30. Remedies for lack of payment are outlined in the Documents. All costs of collection are born by the homeowner.
​
Revenue is equal to the annual dues multiplied by 54 members. Expenses consist of electricity for the fountain, monument and aerators; treatments to maintain the ponds; installation, storage and maintenance fees for the fountain; mowing the berm; and administrative costs. In addition, on a periodic basis higher expenses are incurred for significant equipment maintenance or replacement. The Board attempts to maintain a reserve for periodic expenses to preclude the need for special assessments.
