Association fees in the community of Spring Valley are going up again. From Last years’ increase to $640.00 a year to another hike of $768.00 dollars a year. Some people are not happy about this rate increase. Let’s consider some of the other communities in the High Desert, that include Silver Lakes in the city of Helendale, they are paying $1560 per year and this includes playing all the golf your want. Solera at Apple Valley, a Senior Housing community developed by Pultte homes is charging $1644.00 dollars a year.
Golf at Jess Ranch is modest but not included in this fee.
Although some of us say this is not as bad as some of the communities in other Counties it is still a difficult adjustment to make for a one year change and a lot of people just cannot afford an extra bill in this tight economy
