I am being charged double for a Special Assessment Fee for "lower rental income due to COVID. Vacation Villas sent out a letter on July 17, 2020 stating that they were going to have a Special Assessment fee of $225 for annual unit/week and $112.50 for biennial unit/week. I have owned a biennial week for years and have always paid 1/2 a years maintenance fee for my unit/week. I had to pay a Special Assessment on 10/16/2019 and it was 1/2 of the annual owners fee. For the fee this time I am being billed $225. I called to inquire about the incorrect billing and was told "because you have a two bedroom unit we billed you for two units, one bedroom AND a lockout"! I believe, because I have no way of defending this, it is extortion on their part! Unless you can find someone to take it you are responsible for what ever they want to Assess you with!
