The statement only applies to the lots it lists. When filing or amending the statement, the developer must pay a fee not more than $1,000, set by the Director’s fee schedule. The Director may use those fees to pay for services and related costs, which are not treated as administrative expenses. A filing is complete when the Director receives the statement and the fee. Information in or filed with the statement is open to the public under rules the Director sets. Copies must be provided to anyone who asks for them for a reasonable charge set by the Director.
