As a consequence - the annual fee assessment will remain the same for 2013. AGENDA
SUMMARY • Based upon the aforementioned facts and circumstances, it would appear that the Association (BCHA) is financially sound and should continue to be so, as long as conditions remain essentially the same. • AGENDA
