Liens placed on Rancho Santa Fe Covenant homes

By Karen Billing

The Rancho Santa Fe Association voted to place liens on seven homeowners who missed last year’s second and this year’s first assessment payments. This list of homeowners is not the same as the 38 brought before the board for membership privilege suspension in February. Those homeowners were late on only their first payment of this year so far.

The February number has been brought down from 38 to 23 thanks to an aggressive collection effort and the remaining delinquent homeowners will have liens placed on their homes on April 19.

A total of 42 Covenant homes have liens currently placed on them.

“We appreciate the fact that [staff is] pursuing this somewhat unpleasant course of action,” said director Anne Feighner.
