Dear Fly In Acres Members, 

The Board of Directors of Fly-In Acres Homes Association is aware of and understands the significant concern within the community regarding the recent notices distributed by Blue Lake Springs Homeowners Association (BLS) concerning possible suspension of lake access privileges. Please be assured that the Board is taking this matter very seriously and has been actively working with the Association’s legal counsel to address the situation and protect the Association’s longstanding rights and interests. The Board and legal counsel are currently engaged in ongoing communications regarding disputed charges, historical agreements between the associations, and efforts to reach a fair and reasonable resolution that serves the best interests of the community as a whole. 

At this time, the matter remains an active legal and contractual dispute involving complex historical agreements and accounting issues. Because negotiations and legal discussions are ongoing, the Board must be careful not to publicly disclose confidential legal strategy, privileged communications, or information that could prejudice the Association’s position while efforts toward resolution are underway. 

The Board wants members to know that the Association is actively responding to the situation; legal counsel has formally objected to any threatened suspension of lake privileges while negotiations are ongoing; the Association is pursuing good faith discussions and potential resolution options; and the Board is and has been working diligently to protect the community’s interests and longstanding lake access rights. 

The Board also respectfully requests that members refrain from directly contacting or engaging in disputes with BLS representatives, staff, vendors, or legal counsel regarding this matter. Individual communications, confrontations, or public commentary could unintentionally complicate the Association’s efforts to resolve the dispute effectively and may adversely affect ongoing negotiations. The Board therefore asks that all questions, concerns, and communications regarding this matter be directed to the Association through our email address of flyinacreshoaboard@gmail.com. 

We want to provide the membership with a clear summary of the ongoing lease billing dispute with BLS and the actions your Board has taken in good faith to protect the interests of FIA. 

From 2016 through 2023, the average annual payment made by FIA to BLS was $5,105.28. In comparison, the bill submitted by BLS for 2025 alone totaled $34,847.52, which is approximately 6.8 times higher than the historical annual average paid by FIA over the prior eight years. 

 Even though FIA had not received a bill since 2022 and based on the long-standing billing history and prior payment practices, on 2/11/2025, FIA issued a good faith payment of $7,500 intended to bring all lease-related obligations current through both 2024 and 2025 while working toward a cooperative resolution and a clean financial slate moving forward. 

During the arbitration meeting attended by three BLS representatives and three FIA representatives, BLS acknowledged that they had received the $7500 check but chose not to deposit it. 

The billing timeline is important: 

• On November 11, 2025, FIA received a bill from BLS for 2024 in the amount of $19,426.38. 

• On January 8, 2026, FIA received another bill for 2025 in the amount of $34,847.52. 

• This second bill was delivered the day before the scheduled arbitration meeting. 

 

The FIA Board’s intention in submitting the $7,500 payment was to continue operating in accordance with the historical average billing pattern while attempting to resolve disagreements amicably and establish a reasonable framework for 2026 and future years. 

On February 12, 2026, FIA formally requested a second arbitration meeting in an effort to continue discussions and seek resolution. On March 16, 2026, BLS denied the request, demanded payment of $54,273.90, and advised that they would seek legal action. 

In response, the FIA Board held an emergency board meeting and voted to retain legal counsel to protect the interests of the Association and its members. FIA’s attorney subsequently sent a letter to BLS requesting continued negotiations and asking that lake access remain available through the 2026 season. As of the date of this notice, discussions between the parties and legal counsel remain ongoing. 

The Board believes it is in the best interest of the community to continue pursuing a fair and reasonable resolution while preserving member access and protecting FIA’s long-term interests. 

This effort is especially important given that the current lake lease expires on July 20, 2033. The Board believes maintaining a workable relationship with BLS and exploring options for a future agreement beyond 2033 remains important for the community. 

The FIA Board remains committed to transparency, protecting FIA members’ rights under the lease agreement, and keeping the membership informed as developments occur. The Board believes it is important for members to understand that this dispute involves differing interpretations of longstanding agreements, accounting practices, and operational obligations, and is not simply a matter of refusing to pay undisputed invoices.” 

We understand the frustration and concern this situation has caused, particularly at the beginning of the summer season, and we appreciate the community’s patience while the Association works through this matter carefully and responsibly. The Board will continue to keep the membership appropriately informed as developments occur and as circumstances permit. Thank you for your cooperation and support.
