Some subdivisions will cut off your water, construction deliveries, etc. In your case, mahirap yata kasi nasa labas yung access ninyo. So why pay?
we have more to lose in paying.
security -> walang kwenta. pinapapasok maski walang ID. dami nakawan. walang na roronda sa area namin. we set a system na lang. meron whistle every homeowners. when they are in emergency need they just whitsle so lahat kami lalabas to check.
water -> deep well sya operated by the developer. this year papasukin na kami ng manila waters.
maitenance -> we clean our surroundings. meron na kaming mini garden/landscaping. garbage disposal we pay 7 pesos every week per homeowner.
ang problema lang yung street lighting. iisa lang ang street light namin. nasa gitna sya ng 10 houses. di kami makapag apply sa meralco. dapat daw ang association ang mag apply non. na request na kami sa office of the mayor and endorse to city engineer para sila magpondo sa street ligting namin.

kung member pa din kayo nang HA.. dapat inusog nila yung fence at guard house para nasa loob kayo nang subdivision..
di na kami member dahil we dont pay nga. pag inusog nila yung fence, di kami makakalabas sa sarili naming bahay. yung bahay namin act as a fence sa subdivision.

pero kung 10 house lang kayo, I suggest that you have an informal organization instead. medyo kailangan lang dito ng self-discipline among your ranks since 10 na lang naman kayo.
meron na kaming informal organization. ako po ang president this sunday lang nabuo. since 6 months na kami nakalipat dito, marami na akong nagawa para sa amin. like improvements ng drainage, cutting of trees na naka balandra sa meralco wiring, landscape, enhancement sa security, and some small things. so now mas marami na kaming magagawa since magkakaroon na kami ng pondo namin. yung previous project namin mention above puro sponsor based lang yan.
