Best Answer

Read your governing documents to determine how 'restricted reserves' are treated as accounts.

Often, and state laws can dictate -- that 'restricted reserves' are mandated to be kept in separate accounts, in a bank, for example. Whether these are 'maintenance reserves' , 'capital reserves' or 'insurance deductible reserves', your chart of accounts should differentiate (each of) them from the association's operating account.

Is it legal to assess to rebuild reserves in a condo association?

Yes, it is legal to assess monies for reserves; a special assessment may be required.You can read your state condominium law covering reserve accounts, and then read your governing documents concerning assessments and special assessments.Apparently, your association had reserves funded at some level, then either spent the reserve dollars for their intended purpose, or borrowed from the reserves fund.When reserves are spent for their intended purpose, the level of annual funding anticipates the useful life of the assets being saved for. For example: when the assets' replacement exceeds the amount of funding available, the next year's assessments will probably show an increase in reserve funding, so that the next component to be replaced can be fully funded.When the board borrows against reserves, usually a repayment plan and schedule are required by state law, so that reserves are maintained at appropriate levels.It's impossible to tell from your question how the reserves were spent.You are owed an explanation from your board so that you understand the assessment being levied against your unit.

In Illinois condominium law, minimal reserves refer to the minimum amount of funds that a condominium association must set aside and maintain in reserve for major repairs or replacements of the common elements of the property. These reserves are established to ensure that the association has adequate funds to cover future capital expenditures and prevent the need for special assessments on unit owners. The amount of minimal reserves required can vary depending on the size and age of the condominium property.
