Federal Law FZ 66 horticultural associations. Northern summer resident - news, catalog, consultations. What were the last changes

In order to preserve the fertility of the land and extract benefits from it, the state allocates land plots for gardening... Within these divisions, individual garden plots are cut for citizens. Driveways, streets, walkways and other infrastructure elements are organized inside each section. All this, in the end, the state assigns to gardeners on the basis of common (joint) property, as necessary condition development of gardening. The state goes further and legislates the share of each owner in the common land property.

From the opponents you can hear further: “And I don't need all your fuss with the organization. I can handle it myself. " I doubt that one gardener will be able to supply electricity, gas, water, and other utilities, repair the access road to his site, be able to protect his property from thieves and solve many more problems with local authorities and the state.

Horticultural non-profit partnership established by citizens to address common tasks gardening, truck farming and dacha farming. One gardener cannot solve global resource-intensive tasks. For this, SNT is created as an organization of gardeners.

Common-use property acquired or created at the expense of a special fund established by decision general meeting a horticultural, horticultural or suburban non-profit partnership is the property of such a partnership as a legal entity. SNT manages this common (joint) property, a legal entity, acts as management company hired by gardeners. Referring to the definition of membership fees given to Sadovod in Article 1 of FZ-66 of April 15, 1998, it is quite obvious that membership fees go to the current expenses of the partnership, that is, for the maintenance of SNT and for the acquisition, creation of the property of a legal entity.

Rule: Contributions periodically rendered by gardeners for the maintenance of infrastructure, as well as the creation of common property, which, explicitly or indirectly, is aimed at maintaining the infrastructure and is not a subject of necessity arising from the norms of legislation, or property owned by gardeners, will be membership. FZ-66 of 15.04.1998, Article 21, part 1, p. 10, 11, 12 "Competence of the general meeting of members of a horticultural, vegetable gardening or summer cottage non-profit association (meeting of authorized representatives)"

In accordance with article 21, paragraph 1, paragraphs. 10 and 12 FZ-66 of 15.04.1998 "Competence of the general meeting of members of a horticultural, vegetable gardening or dacha non-profit association (meeting of authorized persons)" The general meeting of members of SNT approves the estimate of income and expenses of the partnership in accordance with the norms established by the Regulation of trust funds and in strict accordance with the number of sites in SNT. The amount of contributions and payments rightfully follows from the estimate. Outcome: Gardeners have sNT income and expense estimate, regulated, understandable to every gardener, collection and distribution of money, for transparent accounting.

There remained one clause of the law that we allegedly did not notice when analyzing the flights about contributions and payments. This is pp. 11 p. 1 of Art. 21 ФЗ-66 of 15.04.98. The time has come to decide on the fine and its size.

Experience shows that penalty set at 0.1% of the debt amount for each day of delay. This figure is present in many contracts that are concluded between the parties in the Russian Federation, incl. between SNT and contractors for the performance of any work, the construction of public facilities, etc. This penalty is slightly higher than that defined in Article 75 of the Tax Code of the Russian Federation, but it is quite admissible and is recognized as unchanged for consideration in courts.

For further work, to develop recommendations for gardeners, we will turn to the Civil Code of the Russian Federation: As a result of the court penalty can be reduced and brought into compliance with Article 75 of the Tax Code of the Russian Federation. Those. the court will calculate the reduced amount of debt according to the following formula where, P \u003d H x D x CP / 100% x 1/300

P - penalty interest; H - the amount of non-payment; D - the number of days of delay;

Wed - refinancing rate of the Central Bank of the Russian Federation

If the gardener has property, then he freely owns it, uses it, disposes in accordance with Art. 209 "Content of ownership" of the Civil Code of the Russian Federation, which constitutes ownership. From this right, the burden and risk of maintaining property are simultaneously imposed on the owner (Article 210 “Burden of maintaining property” of the Civil Code of the Russian Federation). Now try to answer the question yourself: “How can you maintain a plot of land transferred to two hundred gardeners, with your individual garden plots, everything is more or less clear. If you took it into your property, then you need something from this land, and you will operate it in accordance with the permitted use.

The chairman must organize the gardeners, maintenance of common lands: the general meeting, board and other bodies of SNT are also called upon to control gardeners within their competence and authority - this is confirmed by Article 14 of the Federal Law-66 of 04.15.

And then we can safely say that the investment of money by gardeners in the maintenance of a land allotment within the boundaries of SNT is nothing more than the periodic surrender by all owners of individual garden plots of funds, called membership fees in strict accordance with the norms of FZ-66 dated 04.15.1998. And it is membership fees that are the basis for the existence of SNT.

Solving general social and economic problems, SNT, as an organization, creates an infrastructure that is quite specific for a given specific association.

From the definition it follows that only everything taken together: common property with governing bodies, control, hired workers and constitute this very infrastructure that gardeners, according to Art. 210 of the Civil Code of the Russian Federation are required to contain. Civil Code of the Russian Federation, article 210 "Burden of property maintenance"

FZ-66 of 15.04.1998, article 19 "Rights and obligations of a member of a horticultural, vegetable gardening or summer cottage non-profit association"

A MEMBER OF A GARDENING NON-PROFIT ASSOCIATION IS OBLIGED TO:

Bear the burden of maintaining the land and the burden of responsibility for violation of the law;

Timely pay membership and other fees stipulated by this Federal Law and the Articles of Association of the Partnership, taxes and payments for your site and for a share in common land, payments for the maintenance of infrastructure.

The board of the horticultural association, together with interested persons, other workers, etc., calculate those cashthat should be spent on the needs of the partnership in the next year, included in the expenditure side sNT estimates... This takes into account the funds that will be spent on the creation of common property owned by SNT as a legal entity. It is easy to determine this, knowing the purpose for which the property is purchased, for the maintenance of the existing infrastructure. These include salaries of employees, the purchase of office supplies, events for organizing and preparing general meetings, telephone calls, repairs of roads, fences, board buildings, water pipes, power lines, etc. In other words, these operating costs are nothing more than maintaining the very infrastructure in normal working order, or the very operating costs that are defined in article 1 "Basic concepts" of the Federal Law-66 of April 15, 1998.

Example: SNT is necessary in accordance with SP 53-13330.2011 "Planning and development of territories of horticultural (summer cottage) associations of citizens, buildings and structures" and FZ-123 of 22.07.2008 " Technical regulations about requirements fire safety»Purchase a fire pump. In addition, it is planned to purchase a set of office equipment for the board, a working tool for an electrician. All this should definitely be owned by SNT. That is, the property is bought, accounted for and used as the property of a legal entity. After the acquisition, this property is not divided, not allocated, not returned to gardeners, excluding the case of liquidation of SNT (Articles 40 - 44 FZ-66 of 04/15/98) It is important to highlight here that these acquisitions are carried out on membership fee... But they, just, according to the legislation, are not returned, tk. go to the running costs of the organization.

Let's figure it out further. Suppose we have a certain amount that has been carefully calculated by the board and which will presumably be included in the estimate with a proposal for the general meeting to approve it as an expenditure part of the estimate.

The principle of collection of membership fees

In FZ-66 of 04/15/1998, there is no clear definition on what principle a gardener should donate to SNT. But this does not mean at all that in SNT you can do as the general meeting, the board pleases. This is what many gardeners who do not read the law deeply believe. But sometimes even the contributory courts also believe that the assembly can do anything. This opinion is erroneous.

If the gardener, by virtue of owning a large plot (or even several plots), gets more from his plot (s), then why should the provision of all these benefits be determined by equal contributions? The guard, making a round of the territory of the partnership, spends more time on a larger site; the board, fulfilling its duties even with the same amount of work, ultimately allows the owner of a larger plot to extract more material benefits for himself. Let's turn to the letter of the law.

The defenders of the formula do not take into account the changes made to Article 15 of the basic FZ-66 of April 15, 98 by the Federal Law FZ-118 of June 26, 2007. In this regard, many publications are outdated, but they still hang on the World Wide Web. And people often fall into these networks, believing in what is written on the pages of the sites.

Output: The membership fee cannot be calculated based only on the institution of membership in a public association, which is a horticultural non-profit partnership, because contribution - a category, primarily economic. A member of SNT who owns a large number of sites in comparison with other members does not have to pay an equal membership fee with others, because at the same time, the principle of social justice is violated and the amount of the contribution for each member of the SNT who owns one and the number of sites increases.
Principle: 1 member of SNT - 1 membership fee is correct, but the amount of the fee cannot be the same for all members of the association.

The loophole for SNT landowners is in the formula itself. Don't you see? Let's explain. The newly-minted latifundist, who shouted at past meetings that it is necessary to take one contribution from one member, the responsibilities in the SNT are equal for everyone, now this will not be done. Having bought 9 plots, he will become the owner of a powerful land plot with the right to make good money on it. However, he still has to pay for 10 sites. Further, the goal of our landowner will be to escalate actions secretly from SNT to combine 10 plots into one with one cadastral number. By the way, SNT is unable to prevent him from doing this. After the fulfillment of the plan, in our some SNT, instead of 100 plots, there will remain 91. Ultimately, our owner calmly goes to the board and pays for ... - 1 plot, one membership fee.

In this hopeless situation of ours, poor gardeners are once again forced to pay out of their own pockets for missing contributions from 9 plots that were sold to one cunning landowner. And again in SNT the question looms: "What to do?"

In this case, we are talking about the fact that the membership fee is determined by accounting calculations. Those. general meeting members of SNT approves by its decision the costs and incomes of SNT in the next year, of which, through simple calculations, each gardener at the meeting finds out the size membership feefirmly tied to 1 m² of his individual garden plot. As a rule, the chairman of the board in his report or the accountant in his speech, voicing the estimate, must indicate the size of the membership fee for 1 hundred square meters. Based on the fact that garden plots, as a rule, have a standard 8 acres, then the figure is announced for 8 acres (800 m²). Any gardener can easily estimate the size of his membership fee for 4 ares, 5.5 ares or 8, etc.

Article 21 p. 1 p. 10 FZ-66 of 15.04.1998 establishes the right of the general meeting to establish the amount of contributions. Let's figure it out. Since there is no direct indication in our Federal Law-66, then according to Article 6 of the Civil Code of the Russian Federation, we can look for similar norms in other laws.

FZ-141 of November 29, 2004, in Article 1 "On Amendments to Part 2 of the Tax Code of the Russian Federation" in Articles 388, 390, 391, 392 (Chapter 31 "Land Tax") directly indicates the dependence of the land tax on the size of the land plot. But what is written in Part 1 of the Tax Code of the Russian Federation, article 38: the norms of the article clearly define that the amount of taxes, fees, payments is determined depending on the size of the object in value terms. This is how the tax authorities calculate the size of the land tax for gardeners: from the ownership square meters plot. We add that the tax is paid from the object (site), and not from the subject (citizen, gardener). The larger the object, the more tax will be. And tax legislation is completely up to one place where a citizen belongs to membership in public organization: Taxes are not taken from a member of SNT. The belonging of a specific site to a specific owner (again, not a member of SNT), according to tax legislation, determines the subject of payment, i.e. taxpayer and only.

Article 21, p. 1, p. 10 "Competence of the general meeting of members of a horticultural, gardening or summer cottage non-profit association" FZ-66 of 04/15/98 on the priority of making a decision by the general meeting of SNT members on contributions, one membership fee is collected from their members, but it differs in size depending on the area each member.

On June 26, 2007, FZ-118 made a small amendment to the basic FZ-66 dated April 15, 1998: Part 2 of Article 15, indicating that one gardener can own only one plot, has ceased to be in force since 03.07.2007. ...

In accordance with FZ-118, any gardener can buy a neighboring plot, or even two, three - as much as he can use (process).

But, if the decision of the meeting can be easily revised, then with charter it is much more difficult: the new edition requires registration, and the quorum for such a meeting is not 50% of SNT members, but 2/3.

The size membership feefirmly tied to 1 m² of his individual garden plot. As a rule, the chairman of the board in his report or the accountant in his speech, voicing the estimate, must indicate the size of the membership fee for 1 hundred square meters.

The final accurate calculation of the amount of the contribution is made by the accountant. First, the total cost of SNT in the next year is divided by the area of \u200b\u200ball individual plots (the board always has such initial data for calculation). The result is the cost of the membership fee from 1 m² included in individual garden plot, any gardener. Multiplying this cost by the number of meters of a specific individual plot, we get the amount of the installment.

With this principle, social justice is fully observed: whoever owns more land pays more. I believe that if the whole world, including the Russian Federation, has been living this way for a long time in accordance with the adopted legislative acts, then there is no reason for SNT to live somehow differently.

FZ-141 of November 29, 2004, in Article 1 "On Amendments to Part 2 of the Tax Code of the Russian Federation" in Articles 388, 390, 391, 392 (Chapter 31 "Land Tax") directly indicates the dependence of the land tax on the size of the plot.

The norms of the article clearly define that the amount of taxes, fees, payments is determined depending on the size of the object in value terms. This is how the tax authorities calculate the size of the land tax for gardeners: from the ownership of square meters of land. We add that the tax is paid from the object (site), and not from the subject (citizen, gardener). The larger the object, the more tax will be. And the tax legislation is completely up to one place belonging of a citizen to membership in a public organization: taxes are not taken from a member of SNT. The belonging of a specific site to a specific owner (again, not a member of SNT), according to tax legislation, determines the subject of payment, i.e. taxpayer and only.

Membership fees

Quite recently, in our SNT, no one had a clue about the existing FZ-66 of 04/15/98 and all those norms and actions that follow from it. But times change and not always for the worse. Get to the point! Our gardeners for 2010 paid membership fees at the rate of 300 rubles per hundred square meters. This is where this calculation ended. If you think about it, it becomes clear that these contributions had nothing to do with the actual costs of SNT this 2010. Indeed, why not pay 100 rubles or 500 rubles per hundred square meters. At the meeting, the people suggested that. Nobody substantiated anything with calculations.

In 2011, thanks to an acquaintance with FZ-66, the general meeting of members of our ancient SNT, finally, adopted an income and expense estimate, which almost corresponds to the norm of paragraph 1 of paragraphs. 12 of article 21 "Competence of the general meeting of members of a horticultural, vegetable gardening or summer cottage non-profit association". We will not analyze the estimate by element in this article. It is important for us to determine the principles for determining the size of the membership fee. And it clearly follows from the estimate.

So, the board before the general meeting, at which the income and expenditure estimate was to be approved, worked in advance (not 2 weeks in advance) in all respects for the expenditure part of the estimate in strict accordance with the definition of membership fees given in Article 1 of FZ-66.

SNT expenses include all SNT expenses that the society is ready to incur in the next year. These expenditures will accurately correlate with the maintenance of the SNT infrastructure and the injection of part of the funds from contributions to the special fund. These expenses will include the salaries of the chairman, accountant, electrician, security guards, maintenance of buildings and structures, including everything common property, incl. the property that was created for earmarked contributions. This includes expenses for stationery, travel to organizations and departments, telephone calls, training and re-certification of personnel, tax and other obligatory payments, expenses for organizing and holding general meetings, repairing equipment, public roads, etc., etc., etc. In a word, the expenditure part of the estimate, which forms the membership fee, will include all those SNT expenses that do not create and develop infrastructure, but only contain it in strict accordance with the norms of Articles 209, 210 of the Civil Code of the Russian Federation.

Common property (common property) created with the help of a special fund, i.e. part of the membership fees, as a rule, are designed to serve the infrastructure of the SNT. This is the office equipment of the board, a common fence around SNT, a board building, a gatehouse for guards, a barrier at the entrances to SNT, fire-fighting equipment, etc. That is, the property and objects that were not created for targeted contributions, and which, by virtue of the method of creation, acquisition, become the property of SNT as a legal entity.

This property is not allocated or issued in parts, in monetary terms in cases of a member of SNT leaving the association, selling a plot, donating, etc. This property is transferred to the maintenance of the new member of SNT along with the garden land plot from the old member (who sold, donated the plot, or somehow transferred ownership).

Will the membership fees be the same for all gardeners? The answer is obvious - no, they won't.

The size of the membership fee for each gardener is determined: based on 1 m² of own area.

If the gardener's house is not connected to the power line, then such a gardener also pays a fee for the maintenance and construction of power lines.

The legality of calculating a membership fee from gardeners whose site is not connected to the power line, but use street lighting, passages in SNT in the dark. This case should be considered in the context of Article 249 "Expenses for the maintenance of property in shared ownership" of the Civil Code of the Russian Federation. That is, if the owners of the power transmission lines made a lighting system in SNT at their own expense. The maximum that can be done in this situation is to distribute the electricity consumed by the lighting system equally to all owners of power lines.

For all gardeners to pay some part of the membership fee for the maintenance of the lighting system (not to be confused with the kWh of electricity consumed by the lighting system - this is communal payment) it is necessary to first gather the members of SNT for a general meeting and make a decision on the maintenance of the lighting system, of course, having coordinated this issue with the owners of the transmission line. At the same time, the lighting system created at the expense of a special fund will become the property of SNT as a legal entity, and this property will be shared with respect to the entire power line. That is, there will be shared owners of power lines (gardeners), and there will also be a shared owner of SNT. You can, of course, create a lighting system for targeted contributions of all gardeners, then according to the share in the lighting system (similar to the share of SNT in power lines), gardeners will be required to hand over a membership fee for the maintenance of the lighting system (replacement of lamps, preventive examination, electrician's salary, etc.)

As a result of all our research, we have:

The income and expense estimate certainly includes targeted contributions, which are collected separately from membership fees and are not the property of SNT, unlike membership fees (Article 4, clause 2 of the Federal Law-66). But, earmarked contributions are considered on the page "Earmarked contributions to SNT. Differences from membership fees, principle of collection, size ”. There everything is detailed and laid out on the shelves.

There is one more important point in the system of collection of membership fees. True, it also applies to all other fees in SNT:

Should know and rememberthat the board of SNT cannot, has no right not to take into account all gardeners, including abandoned plots, in the income and expense estimates. Otherwise, active members of SNT at their own expense stupidly contain idlers who have not appeared in SNT for years. And the number of those who do not appear is growing and will continue to grow if the active part, together with the board, does not take action against non-payers.

The board has the right and is obliged to collect losses from non-payers through the court in accordance with the requirements of Article 7 "Powers of a horticultural, vegetable gardening or suburban non-profit association", article 46 "Protection of the rights of gardening , gardening, dacha non-profit associations and their members "FZ-66 of 15.04.98 and articles: 210." Burden of property maintenance ", 244" The concept and grounds for the emergence of common property ", 249" Expenses for the maintenance of property in shared property "of the Civil Code of the Russian Federation.

Amendments to 66-FZ on horticultural, vegetable gardening and summer cottage non-profit associations of citizens

Thus, the board will need to decide on the cost of copies of documents based on the cost estimate.

  4. The charter of the association must contain the procedure for establishing the amount of membership fees.

    Now this is legally established, and this procedure may include, among other things, establishing the size of the membership fee depending on the area of \u200b\u200bthe land plot of a member of such an association and (or) the total area of \u200b\u200bimmovable property belonging to him and located on this land plot. There are two main points here:
    • a) the size of the membership fee, in the opinion of the legislator, can now be established depending on the area of \u200b\u200bthe land plot or on the area of \u200b\u200bimmovable property on the land plot. A combined principle between the two is also possible. That is, the principle of collecting membership fees - "equally from the site", which is widespread in many partnerships, has been excluded.
    • b) In the text of the article, the words "may include, among other things ..." make it possible to interpret the above principles of collecting a membership fee as recommended, but not mandatory. That is, if a different procedure is formulated in the charter, then so be it, the main thing is that it is spelled out in the charter.
  5. The wording of the term “membership fees” has been clarified.

    In the new edition, these are funds periodically contributed by members of a horticultural, vegetable gardening or summer cottage non-profit association for the maintenance of common property, remuneration of employees who have entered into employment contracts with such an association, and other operating expenses of such an association. Supplemented by the obvious - the content of the common property. Recall that in accordance with the same Federal Law No. 66, public property is property (including land plots) intended to provide, within the territory of a horticultural, vegetable gardening or suburban non-profit association, the needs of members of such a non-profit association in the passage, passage, water supply and drainage, electricity supply, gas supply, heat supply, security, recreation and other needs (roads, water towers, common gates and fences, boiler rooms, children's and sports grounds, waste collection areas, fire-fighting facilities, etc.).
New edition the law requires amendments to the charter (in particular, the mandatory inclusion of a provision on the procedure for establishing the size of the membership fee). At the same time, one should not rush to make changes, since in accordance with paragraph 2 of Article 2 of the Federal Law No. 337 statutes horticultural, horticultural or summer cottage non-profit associations of citizens subject to harmonization at the first change constituent documents such legal entities... When registering the specified changes to the constituent documents, the state fee is not charged.

However, the changes have already entered into force, regardless of their presence in the charter.
