Billing Has Been Issued – New Payment Option for 2018
FISCAL YEAR 2018-2019 BILLING HAS BEEN ISSUED
Thank you for your patience as we worked through thousands of data points related to our membership lists and our billing files. We work hard year-round to keep a clean database of owner information, and it can be a challenge as properties change hands (sometimes we think it must happen quietly in the foggy middle of the night along a lonesome Bernhard Bridge). ?
We have issued invoices for all CRCC properties, and they are headed to you through the US Mail. When you open your invoice, note you may have a small “Oops” slip stating we are missing contact information. Please remit the info we’ve checked as missing.
Another slip in your invoice shares the new payment option we have this year. Thanks to sound financial management and a bylaw change enacted in June, we are pleased to offer the option explained below.
NOTE: If you have recently made a payment, it may not be reflected on your invoice. This is probably due to our accounting cut-off. Not to worry – simply deduct the payment you have made which isn’t showing on your paper invoice, and remit the balance.
We encourage you to pay your balance due by September 15, 2018. However, if you need a little more time, consider this…
NEW PAYMENT OPTION FOR 2018 – the details:
If you owe for any prior year’s dues, assessments, fees, or charges, those are due and payable immediately.
For the current year’s dues and assessments, pay at least 50% by September 15, 2018, then the remainder by October 31st, 2018 without penalty.
Any amount due on November 1st, 2018 is considered delinquent. A lien may be placed on your property(-ies) and/or foreclosure action commenced without further notice.
No additional bills will be sent. If you choose the half-payment option, make sure to mark your calendar so you don’t miss the October 31st deadline for the remainder.
Please direct your questions to [email protected].
Thank you!

Annual Meeting Special Assessment Votes
At the CRCC 2017 Annual Meeting, the membership of Cascade River Park voted overwhelmingly in favor of the 2017-2018 fiscal year budget. The membership also voted in favor of Special Assessment #1, the Front Gate Project. We will begin work on that in the coming months. Thank you for your endorsement of these important items!
As it turned out, we ended up with a tie on Special Assessment #2, for Park Facilities Improvements. Not having had this happen in memory, the Board of Directors, after considering our Bylaws and how this exceptional vote result isn’t addressed by them, has decided to consider the tie vote a no-pass. Thus, the special assessment for the Park infrastructure project to build a bathroom isn’t enacted.
The Board may, at its discretion, proceed with some elements of preliminary development of the project using other funds already in-hand. Such an effort would enable us to prepare a more complete picture of the scope and cost of such a project and present the membership with enough information to consider future special assessments.
We are a community of neighbors, united in wanting what’s best for Cascade River Park. As energetic as the discussion got at times during the annual meeting, we truly appreciate the passionate dialog that went into it. We look forward to working with everyone to construct a plan that will address the Park’s need for sustainable, ADA-accessible restrooms and other facilities that will position the Park to support its membership’s needs.
