We have out-of state property owners in our association who feel that they should not be billed for snowplowing expenses insofar as they do not use their property during winter months. I know of the statutory requirement for expense sharing, but as a practical matter:
1. Do road associations charge their o-o-s property owners for snowplowing?
2. Apart from the statutory argument, what other reasons can be used to make o-o-s owners appreciate their obligation to contribute to snowplowing costs? I have thought of several but am curious to hear what others think.
I am most interested in a response to question 1, above.
Thanks!
