<div class="WordSection1">
<p class="MsoNormal">A developer client has put together a small
subdivision with a Road Maintenance Agreement for the private
roads and a Water Sharing Agreement for the private water
system. NO HOA. OK, here’s where the rubber hits the road.
He wants to set up a banking account to put a reserve fund for
the water system BUT the bank will not allow him to open a
banking account WITHOUT an EIN and he says he can’ get an EIN
without having a legal entity. Any work arounds for a small
group of fewer than 20 homes in a rural setting who do not
want the formality of incorporating a WA not-for-profit?
Thanks for your ideas.<o:p></o:p></p>
