§ 3269. Reserve fundd

(a) A participating municipality may create a reserve fund for use in the event of a foreclosure upon an assessed property. The reserve fund shall be funded by participating property owners at a level sufficient to provide for the payment of any past due balances on assessments under this subchapter and any remaining principal balances on those assessments in the event of a foreclosure upon a participating property.

(b) The reserve fund shall be capitalized in accordance with standards and procedures approved by the commissioner of banking, insurance, securities, and health care administration to cover expected foreclosures based on good lending practice experience.

(c) The municipality shall disclose in advance to each interested property owner the amount of that property owner's required payment into the reserve fund. Once disclosed, the amount of the reserve fund payment shall not change over the life of the assessment. (Added 2009, No. 45, § 15j, eff. May 27, 2009.)
