"We want to jfay 100 percent of our dues." Less than 100 percent would be paid only if a property owners group has a "severe shortage" in its general fund, he said. MPOA President Ed Beard point­ ed out that Highland Shores has the same policy of allowing its members a vote only if 100 percent of their subdivision dues are paid. "No one here today is without a vote," Beard said. "We are a demo­ cratic organization. The MPOA can­ not operate with 80 percent of its budget. This (proposal) will cripple the organization. It will remove all the incentive to pay all dues. Take that incentive away and you are going to ruin this organization. "I have faithfully served this or­ ganization as president for five years.

The Pella Window Store Wkdowi.Hoon, SunrooasASkyBtfrts by election day, are eligible to regis­ ter to vote. People who have never been registered in McHenry County or who have changed addresses or names since last voting are urged to register.

He also noted that he only had to threaten Highland Shores, of all the property.owners groups, with legal action if all dues weren't paid. Pfannkuche said, with the failure of the proposal, he may ask the MPOA to collect their own dues di­ rectly from residents instead of hav­ ing each association group collect from their members. "There are 8,000 human beings out here that don't have a meaningful organization to represent them. Per­ haps it's time for the Masters to do their own billing, just as if it were a corporation," he said. Diane Rodgers, director of Indian Ridge subdivision, said the MPOA should consider lowering it's dues because the dam has been repaired and there will probably be no need folr further repair. A bill is currently awaiting signature from Governor Thompson, that would negate hav­ ing to do further work on the Wonder Lake dam.
