Total 5% Notes Total expenses exclude designated savings. 2005 Insurance expense excludes prior year insurance accruals. 2005 Maintenance & repairs expenses exclude extraordinary costs and non-operating costs classified as operating because they were not amortized (e.g., elevator, heating system, permits, lobby rug, trash chute)

  12. Lower mortgage payments starting in December 2006 • In April 2005, the board took advantage of low interest rates and locked in a rate of 6.10%, down from our present rate of 6.99%. • As a result, our annual mortgage costs will decline by $77,000,a drop of 36%.

  13. Smaller water bills • In the first quarter of 2005, the board hired a consultant who determined our co-op would benefit by switching the basis of our water billing from frontage to meter. • We won’t know the exact size of the decline for several months, but a preliminary estimate shows our water bills will fall by $25,000,a decrease of 38%. • New consequence: We are now paying for drips.
