The lot lease does not include town water or sewer charges, which average about $35 a month- each, or natural gas and electric utility fees, which vary depending on the size of one's home, the number and type of appliances in it, and personal choices about heating and cooling.

Some manufactured home communities average total utility costs and have residents pay a flat fee, but we feel it is unfair to ask some residents to pay for more than they use, in effect subsidizing other residents who use more.

It's a fact of life that the price of almost everything goes up over time - including the goods and services we need in order to maintain Gypsum Mills Estates. As a result, the monthly fee will generally increase by what the housing market is yearly, and keep us in pace with inflation and allow us to maintain the quality of service that our residents expect.
