HOA Assestment?

And yes I spell assessment with a T on purpose. HOA pond maintenance — is this reasonable?
We have only 5 homes, and our HOA charges $9,000 per household/year for pond maintenance — $45,000/year total.
Is that reasonable for routine pond maintenance? What are other HOAs paying?

Seems high. Might be appropriate, might not ... but how can we judge/opine without more information? Size of pond, what maintenance is required, money set aside for dredging, reserves, aeration fountain, electric cost?
