Bali Hi Mobile Home Lodge News A Communication from the Community Owners and Management • Office Hours 9:00 am 4:00pm May 20. 2019 Dear Community Residents, Bali Hi has had the same ownership for a very long time. Over those many years we have expressed our appreciation to the residents of the Park through a variety of events such as Holiday dinners and celebrations and by paying close attention to the maintenance and upgrading of the Park and services we provide to each of our residents. We also realize that good communication with our residents is very important, In this brief newsletter we will address some of the issues that have been raised concerning our Park while at the same time taking this opportunity to thank each of you for choosing to be a part of the Bali Hi community and for living with us! Sincerely, From the Park Owners and Management Be Cautions About What You Hear We are troubled by some of the rumors we are hearing and, frankly, it is very concerning and hurtful to be called "predators" in communications distributed in the Park and on some Facebook sites. There seems to be a group of people who are set on attacking Park ownership and management and who are also focused on scaring the residents of our community. This is very sad. No one is going to lose their home. No one is going to become homeless. We want to assure you that we care about our each and every one of our residents. We Hope You Like the Park Improvements We are very pleased to have been able to install a front gate to upgrade Bali Hi to a gated community. We hope this addition, along with other ongoing improvements around the park, are being enjoyed by everyone. A Note About The 2019 Rent Increases Everyone in the park received a 90 notice of a rent increase that will go into effect on June 1, 2019. The increases were different depending on the current rent you are paying. Current rents in the park range from a low of $594 to a high of $925. This wide range of rents for the same exact size sites and services did not seem fair and it was time to begin to address the issue of this inconsistent rent range. Therefore, those residents with lower rents received higher rent increases than the residents with the higher rents who received lower increases. In addition, the rents in the park are below market. As an example, new residents moving into the community are paying $1,100. Rent Subsidies Help if Rent Increase is a Hardship Along with the rent increase notice information was provided about a program the Park has participated in for the past three years, the Manufactured Housing Educational Trust Rental Assistance Program (MHET RAP). This program provides monthly rent subsidies for residents who are paying more than 40% of their monthly income on housing costs (rent, mortgage and utilities). The program is administered by a third party and is completely confidential. Some residents in the park are receiving a monthly subsidy. For more information on this program, please call (949) 380-3311.
