Scenario 3: Mayflower Heights Specific Funding & Housekeeping

Mayflower Heights operates with a separate Corpus Fund and distinct maintenance structure. The Area EC Member ensures funds are utilized strictly according to bylaws.

Workflow Checklist:

Manage routine housekeeping directly using Heights-specific maintenance collections.
For common requests (e.g., painting), verify if sufficient funds exist in the Heights-specific account.
If funds are requested from the general association pool for Heights-exclusive projects, formally evaluate it in the EC meeting. The EC can decline such requests to prevent subsidizing Heights with general villa owner funds.
Communicate any decline in funding clearly to apartment residents, outlining alternative local funding solutions.
