Membership and payment
mandatory
Check the property, not just the neighbourhood.
No individual title, account balance or household access is certified here. A maintenance boundary, nearby amenity or condo fee does not settle those questions.

Fees, classes & context.
Published $200 annual charge — effective year unconfirmed
Published amount recorded| Property / fee class | Amount | Tax & applicability |
|---|---|---|
| Covered property | $200.00 | Tax not confirmed |
Published deadline / period: Published annual deadline: August 31; fiscal year January 1–December 31. Confirm which year the new amount first covers.
Published late-payment information: The live page announces 10% per month on outstanding dues. Confirm commencement, calculation and the governing authority in writing.
The fee page reports a passed February 25, 2026 increase from $100 to $200; the event page describes discussion of 2027 dues. Do not assume this is a 2026 assessment. GST is unstated.

02 / THE PROPERTY CONTEXT
Which properties and households participate?
Title-linked obligation
yes
Property coverage
Those ranges total 53 lots. The posted bylaws separately allow up to 67 members; neither figure proves the current total or coverage of all Aspen Woods. The municipal map is neighbourhood context only.
Eligible registered owners
The posted bylaws define an Eligible Owner by registered ownership of covered lands, or one nominee where owners share title. Verify the lot and current membership record.
Tenants, roommates and other occupants
Owner eligibility does not establish an independent tenant vote or transferable private-amenity membership. Request current household and meeting arrangements.
Other Aspen Woods properties and outside-area residents
The neighbourhood name is insufficient. No general membership-for-purchase or guest-facility offer was verified.
03 / THE PROPERTY CONTEXT
What the association does
Services and assets
Supports designated entrance features, fencing and landscaping under the association's governing documents. · Assists with the development's restrictive-covenant framework and collects assessed dues.
04 / THE PROPERTY CONTEXT
Amenities and access
Entrance features and designated landscaping
Asset scope follows the governing documents; request the current maintenance plan.
Neighbour Day and seasonal community activities
The 2025 minutes discuss event spending. Confirm upcoming dates and participation with the board.
05 / THE PROPERTY CONTEXT
Rules and responsibilities
Withdrawing membership does not erase owner dues
Bylaw 3.5 preserves an Eligible Owner's Article 4 obligations despite withdrawal or expulsion. Obtain a current account statement rather than treating non-participation as a fee exemption.
Budgeted dues and additional assessments are distinct
Article 4 addresses written fee notice, annual shared costs and possible additional assessments for unbudgeted expenses. Request current resolutions and any planned work; an original dollar estimate is not a lifetime limit.
Request the actual budget and statements
The November 2025 minutes refer to financial slides, a 2026 budget and reduced reserves without publishing the figures. No current reserve balance or numerical budget is verified here.
Separate the 2007 design process from current approvals
The May 2007 guide describes preliminary design review, formal builder submissions and original construction security. Ask the board who now reviews alterations and which amendments apply; the historic builder workflow is not a verified current submission route.
Historical RV and commercial-vehicle restrictions
Section 2.2.15 of the 2007 guide places storage inside a garage, with a loading exception of up to 48 hours for trailers, motorhomes and boats. Confirm the property's applicable current documents before relying on this exception.
Fence design depends on the rear-yard treatment
The original guide distinguishes vinyl/sound fencing from chain-link or wrought-iron lots and modifies side-fence height near open rear boundaries. Obtain the lot-specific approved specification before replacement.
Rear-yard equipment and accessory structures
The 2007 guide addresses sheds, recreational equipment, fire pits and satellite dishes. Review the relevant clauses and current municipal requirements for the proposed work rather than assuming a universal prohibition or approval.
Retaining-wall responsibility needs a property review
The posted September 2017 memorandum concerns a particular wall dispute. It is a legal opinion, not a court ruling or a blanket exemption. Inspect title instruments, approved plans and maintenance arrangements for the wall in question.
06 / THE PROPERTY CONTEXT
What is separate or excluded
Not part of this service
No private lake, beach or clubhouse entitlement was established from the reviewed documents. · SCA programming and facility membership are administered by a separate community association. · Payment does not establish that the HOA maintains every private fence, retaining wall, yard or structure. Resolve responsibility for the exact asset.
08 / THE PROPERTY CONTEXT
Title and governance
Encumbrance
Posted instrument 081187009 secures annual maintenance charges and other assessed amounts for the association, with collection-cost provisions and successor-owner wording. The Plan 0810400 lots specified in the posted instrument; verify current registration and amendments for the subject property.
Restrictive Covenant
The posted covenant creates a development-control framework for Aspen Cliff Estates, including architectural review definitions and a schedule of affected lands. Affected lots in the covenant schedules and current title. Do not apply the document across all Aspen Woods.
Governance and control
The posted bylaws describe owner directors and developer provisions. Current turnover status and board authority were not independently established.
