Condominium associations save money in reserve fund accounts to replace major real estate components, such as roofs, windows, exterior doors, asphalt, club house and so forth, that all the owners own in common.
The amount of money in reserves depends on at least these variables:
The Illinois condominium law -- below -- uses the language "reasonable reserves" which leaves the dollar amount or minimum up to wide interpretation. See Chapter 9: Budgets and Reserves. Unfortunately for those of us who live in common interest communities, the law and best practices are not in sync on these matters. Ideally, an association would fund reserves so that the chances of a special assessment to pay for major repairs would be in the 1-2% range. This would be a best practice.

To find excess reserves, first determine a bank's total reserves, which includes both required reserves and any additional reserves held. Then, identify the required reserves, calculated as a percentage of the bank's deposits based on regulatory requirements. Subtract the required reserves from the total reserves; the remaining amount is the excess reserves. Formulaically, it can be expressed as: Excess Reserves = Total Reserves - Required Reserves.

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.
