the transferee binds himself, as a contract for the benefit of the Association, to become a member of the

iii) be bound by this Memorandum of Incorporation and all rules of the Association as approved by the
members.

6. LEVIES
6.1
26.11.2013
The Directors shall from time to time make levies upon the members for the purpose of meeting the annual
operating expenses of the Association including:
Page 4

6. i)
all general expenses which the Association has incurred;
ii)
all expenses which the Directors reasonably anticipate the Association will incur by way of maintenance,
repair, improvement and keeping in good order and condition the common area;
iii) all expenses which the Directors reasonably anticipate the Association will incur by way of maintenance of
the exteriors of any buildings, structures, erections or other improvements situate on the private erven;
iv) all expenses relating to any statutory charges, rates or levies charged to the Association by any Statutory
Authority.
In calculating levies the Directors shall take into account income, if any, earned by the Association.
6.2
The Directors shall estimate the amount required by the Association to meet its operating expenses during each
year, together with any estimated deficiency / surplus as shall result from the preceding year. They shall then,
make a levy upon the members, equal as nearly as is reasonably practicable, to such estimated amount. The
Directors may include in such levy an amount to be held in reserve to meet anticipated future operating
expenditure not of an annual or recurring nature. Every such levy shall be recoverable from the members, in
equal monthly payments, due in advance on the first day of each and every succeeding month of such year.
Any levy not paid on due date shall carry interest at a rate as the Directors may decide.
6.3
The levy shall not be implemented or become binding until approved by members at a General Meeting of the
Association. Members shall be entitled to a full explanation, be able to raise questions and debate the matter
prior to voting either for or against a resolution to implement such levy. In the event that approval of a proposed
levy is denied then any and all existing levy or levies shall remain in full force and effect pending resolution of
members objections and concerns and their approval of a new proposed levy.
6.4
In the event of the Association being unable to fulfill its objectives, from time to time, in respect of expenditure
for:
i)
statutory Rates and taxes;
ii)
maintenance of the common area;
iii) any other obligation assumed by it in terms of an agreement with a Statutory Authority then the Directors
may make special levies upon members, not exceeding the identified and certified amount in question,
without the passing of a resolution at a General Meeting of the Association. The applicable levy may be
made in sum total as a once-off charge or by a specified number of monthly payments and may bear
interest at a rate upon which the Directors will decide.
6.5
Unforeseen circumstances may arise from time to time that may necessitate the creation and imposition of a
specific additional levy, other than for structural changes to buildings on private erven, on the members. In such
event, the Directors will motivate a detailed proposal for consideration and voting upon at a General Meeting to
be called for such purpose.
6.6
No specific additional levies will be raised for structural changes to the buildings and/or facilities on the private
erven unless such levy be agreed to and approved, by special resolution, at a General Meeting to be called for
such purpose.
6.7
Any amount due by a member by way of a levy and interest shall be a debt due by him to the Association. The
obligation of a member to pay an ongoing levy and interest shall cease upon the date on which his membership
terminates without prejudice to the Association’s right to recover any outstanding arrear levies and interest. No
levies or interest paid by a member shall, under any circumstances, be repayable by the Association upon his
ceasing to be a member. A member’s successor in title to a private erf shall be liable as from the date upon
which he becomes a member pursuant to the transfer of that erf, to pay the levy and interest thereon
attributable to that erf.
6.8
The levy payable by a member shall bear the same proportion to the total levy imposed on members, as the
number of residential plus garage erven registered in the name of that member bears to the aggregate number
of all the residential plus garage erven.
26.11.2013

executors, curators, trustees or liquidators) have any claim upon or interest in the funds or other property of the
