ANNUAL ASSOCIATION ASSESSMENTS
The Covenants of the LLA require all property owners to pay an annual assessment ( Covenants , Article V , Section 10 ).

Paying your annual assessments triggers the renewal of your permits for the upcoming fiscal year . Doing so keeps all registered items active and valid for amenity use , including your Member ID .
Assessment invoices are mailed the last week of January with details on how to submit payment . Members must pay in full or set up monthly automatic draft payments as described in the annual invoice . Payment is due March 1 . There is a 30- day grace period for owners to make late payments without penalty . All unpaid accounts will be assessed late fees on April 1 , and interest will begin accruing .
Please note , assessment payments should not be sent or delivered to the LLA office . Currently , assessment payments can be paid online through your Member Account or via USPS to First Citizens Bank ( formerly CIT ) . Members can review their account balance by logging in o their online Member Account .
