Join snt without having a site. Forced admission to SNT: grounds and methods for conducting the procedure

Where to look for the board of SNT to join it?

The location of the SNT is determined by its location state registration. More detailed information can be obtained on the website of the Federal Tax Service of Russia by filling in the required data.

In practice, it is not uncommon for SNT to have its own website containing contact details for communication.

The issue of admitting new members general rule decides on general meeting association members once a year.

But the entry into the board of a horticultural, horticultural or dacha non-profit association is not provided for by the current legislation. The board is elected by direct secret ballot from among its members for a period of two years by the general meeting of members of such an association (meeting of authorized persons), unless otherwise provided by the charter of such an association. The number of members of the board is established by the general meeting of members of such an association (meeting of authorized persons).

The easiest way is to ask the previous owner of the site how to contact the board of the partnership. In some cases, it will be useful to communicate with other owners of plots in the village: there is a chance to avoid unpleasant surprises that the seller "forgot" to warn you about (for example, frequent power outages or noisy neighbors).

What is the sequence of actions if you buy a plot in a village with an existing SNT (DNT)?

Buying real estate (including land) in SNT requires some caution. First you need to make sure that the seller has the full package of documentation necessary for the transaction. Basically, these are the following documents:

An extract from the USRN on state registration of ownership of a land plot and a house;

Cadastral passport;

Certificate from the board of SNT on the absence of debt;

Extract from the USRN confirming the absence of encumbrances and prohibitions;

Certified technical plan of construction and boundary plan of the site (in case of doubt).

Accordingly, after the purchase of the land, the new owner can apply to join the SNT.

House in law: how to register the rights to a newly built country houseA country house must be built not only according to the mind, but also according to the law. Experts told the RIA Real Estate website about all the procedures for designing an individual house at each stage of its construction.

How to get out of SNT (DNT)?

Joining the SNT, as well as leaving it, is a voluntary action of a citizen. The procedure for terminating membership is reflected in the charter of the SNT itself.

To withdraw from the SNT, the owner of the site must submit an appropriate application. After its submission, the following consequences occur: an agreement is signed with the withdrawing participant, which provides for further relations between the parties; any payment of contributions shall cease; lose the opportunity to participate internal affairs partnerships; Subordination to the charter and decisions of the partnership ceases.

Accordingly, in order to avoid misunderstandings, it is better to submit such an application yourself if you are selling your site. Often, the statutes of the SNT (DNT) state that membership in it is automatically terminated when the site is sold, but in practice it is better to inform.

What happens if you don't pay dues?

What contributions and in what form to pay are decided by the board of SNT (DNT), which, in turn, is chosen at a general meeting of owners. From the contributions, the maintenance and repair of roads and other communications, the protection of the village and the maintenance of common areas, if any, are usually paid. Sometimes, in addition to the monthly contribution, money is collected for other needs, for example, if a decision is made to send money to the village the new kind communications (gas, water supply) or install a barrier. The form of payment can be both cash and non-cash.

The defaulter will first be warned: SNT will send him a warning about the need to eliminate the violations. After that, the issue of excluding such an owner of the land plot from the members of the SNT should be put on the agenda of the general meeting.

Also, Article 8 of Law No. 66-FZ provides for the right of the partnership to deprive gardeners of the opportunity to use infrastructure facilities, for example, by turning off the electricity.

In particular, SNT has the right to collect the debt of the gardener in judicial order, accruing penalties.

Flour is canceled: life hacks for moving out of town for the summerMoving out of town for the whole summer can turn from a pleasant experience into an extreme adventure, unless, of course, you prepare in time. The RIA Real Estate website tells its readers how to prepare for moving to the country so as not to turn into a survivalist tourist.

Is it possible to have a plot in the village, but not join the SNT (DNT)?

Can. Law No. 66-FZ provides for horticulture, horticulture or dacha farming on an individual basis. This means that the owner of the land plot will not be a member of the SNT, and, accordingly, will pay a membership fee, but you still have to pay for the use of infrastructure facilities and other common property - it is necessary to conclude appropriate agreements.

Can the settlement function without SNT (DNT)?

Maybe. However, the settlement, as a rule, is located on agricultural land, therefore, for its functioning without SNT, it is necessary to transfer all the land under it to the category of settlement land, which is very difficult, since for such an operation it will be necessary to change the boundaries of the nearest locality.

It also happens that in the village the owners of the plots could not agree, and two SNTs (DNTs) function in it at once.

What functions does it perform?

First of all, SNT (DNT) collectively solves the issues of creating and maintaining infrastructure and landscaping. Most of these issues are easier to resolve jointly: on behalf of the SNT, employment contracts, for example, with a site security officer or an accountant, civil law contracts- connection to electric networks, export household waste and so on. In addition, intra-village roads, part of communications and services are usually issued to the partnership. For example, if the village is guarded, then the tenant security company stands precisely SNT (DNT).

What is a dacha (gardening) partnership?

SNT (DNT) is a non-profit organization created to assist its members in solving common social and economic problems of gardening, horticulture and dacha farming. Relations in such a partnership are regulated by Law No. 66-FZ "On horticultural, horticultural and dacha non-profit associations of citizens" (hereinafter - Law No. 66-FZ) a horticultural, horticultural or dacha non-profit association of citizens (partnership, consumer cooperative or non-profit partnership).

By the way, whether you have a horticultural or dacha partnership depends not on the desire of the participants, but on the type of permitted use of the land on which the village is built: dacha construction or gardening.

What is SNT?

So the legislation is called a garden non-profit partnership. A garden partnership, like a dacha partnership, must be located on agricultural land. The principle is as follows, a garden partnership is not much different from a dacha partnership, but there is a difference. For example, land in the Garden Non-Commercial Partnership is more expensive than the same land in the Dacha Non-Commercial Partnership. This is due to the fact that land in SNT is usually more fertile.

IN civil code part 5 of paragraph 6 on non-profit corporate organizations deals with associations of property owners. In paragraph 1 of Art. 123.12 of the Civil Code of the Russian Federation, which is included in this part, states that a partnership of real estate owners is an association of citizens who have the right to own real estate on a voluntary basis. Such an association is created for the purposes of joint ownership of property, use of it, as well as with some restrictions on the disposal of property.

This property is in their common ownership or common use. In paragraph 2 of Art. 213.13 of the Civil Code of the Russian Federation it is established that members of a partnership of property owners own objects common use in horticultural, horticultural and dacha non-profit partnerships on the basis of common shared ownership.

Who can be a member of the SNT?

Art. 18 of the Federal Law "On horticultural, gardening and country non-profit associations of citizens" establishes that members of such non-profit partnership those persons who have the citizenship of the Russian Federation, who are already 18 years old, and who own a land plot located within the boundaries of this partnership, can be recognized. Citizens at the age of 16 can also be recognized as members of a horticultural, horticultural and dacha cooperative under the same conditions. Citizens wishing to join this association are elected by the general meeting of members of a horticultural, horticultural or dacha non-profit association, which is confirmed by Part 2, Clause 1, Art. 21 of the specified Federal Law.

How to become a member of SNT?

Admission to membership of the Garden Non-Commercial Partnership begins for a citizen by purchasing a land plot. After the land sale and purchase transaction has taken place, a potential member of the SNT can apply for admission to the SNT along with an identity card and documents confirming the applicant's right to the land. And the citizen who sold him the land plot, on the contrary, must submit an application for his withdrawal from the members of the SNT, since he no longer has this land plot. So, further it is necessary to pay entrance fees, as well as membership fees, the procedure for making and the amount of which is regulated by the charter of this SNT. The decision on whether to accept a citizen as a member of the SNT or not is made, as already indicated, by the members of this SNT in the general meeting of members of the SNT. Then, within 3 months from the date of admission to membership, a new member of the SNT must be issued a special membership book, or another document confirming membership. this person in SNT. After becoming a member of the SNT, a new member is entered into the register of members of the association, in accordance with Art. 19.1 of the Law.

Why do we need country or garden associations: SNT, DNT, garden or dacha cooperatives? First of all, to create comfortable conditions for using their personal land plots, dachas, garden houses.

To meet their needs for passage, travel, water supply and sanitation, electricity, gas supply, heat supply, security, recreation and other needs, gardeners and summer residents create public property at their own expense.

TO public property include roads, water towers, common gates and fences, boiler rooms, children's and sports grounds, garbage collection sites, fire fighting and similar structures.

In SNT 1, such common property is created (acquired) at the expense of earmarked contributions. The law, establishing the obligation of members of the SNT to participate in the creation of common property, regulates the procedure for establishing earmarked contributions and their payment. This is a guarantee of the rights of gardeners from abuse of the governing bodies of SNT and individuals in the governing bodies of the association.

Of course, in this article we will not talk about how not to pay garden fees at all, but about how how not to pay illegally established earmarked contributions, as well as to counteract other abuses in their establishment and collection.

Below, based on our practice, we will consider the most common questions about earmarked contributions.

1. Check what the target contribution is set for?

What fees do I have to pay in SNT?

The law on horticultural associations 2 provides for three types of contributions: entry, membership and target.

Payment type Target Periodicity
Entrance fee For organizational expenses for paperwork when joining the SNT (paragraph 6 of article 1 of the Law on Horticultural Associations). One-time payment
Membership fee For the maintenance of common property, remuneration of employees who have concluded employment contracts with such an association, and others current expenses such an association (paragraph 7, article 1 of the Law on Horticultural Associations). Periodic payment
Target contribution For the acquisition (creation) of a public facility(paragraph 8, article 1 of the Law on Horticultural Associations). One-time payment for each common property created/acquired (can be divided into several parts).

1 Next, we will talk about garden associations ah, since dacha and garden partnerships in matters of establishing and collecting earmarked contributions are no different from SNT. Questions about contributions to garden, dacha and horticultural cooperatives will be considered in separate articles.

2 of the Federal Law of April 15, 1998 No. 66-FZ "On horticultural, horticultural and dacha non-profit associations of citizens."

As you can see, the target contribution is set only for acquisition (creation) public facilities.

If the target contribution is set for you for other purposes (covering legal expenses, a bonus to the chairman of the board of SNT, a tax on common land, organizing a holiday on the occasion of the harvest, etc.), the establishment of such a contribution is illegal!

So, representing the interests of the defendant-gardener in one of the cases, we succeeded in dismissing the claim to recover from him in favor of SNT a targeted contribution to cover the legal costs of SNT incurred by the partnership in litigation with other gardeners.

2. Who is required to pay the target fee?

The Law on Horticultural Associations provides that joining the SNT is voluntary. Therefore, those gardeners who did not wish to become a member of the SNT are gardening on the territory of the SNT individually.

Based on the definition of a targeted contribution (Article 1 of the Law on Horticultural Associations), targeted contributions are paid only members of the SNT.

In practice, questions often arise about what fees an individual gardener should pay, should an individual gardener pay a targeted fee?

Individual gardener not required to pay neither targeted nor any other contributions that are established in the SNT.

The law provides only the right of such gardeners share in the costs for the acquisition (creation) of public facilities. In this case, the amount of payment for the use of such property cannot exceed the amount of payment for such gardeners, which is established for members of the SNT (Article 8 of the Law on Horticultural Associations).

The only thing that you are obliged to pay as an individual gardener is a fee for the use of common facilities on the basis of an agreement concluded with SNT.

3. The procedure for establishing the target contribution and its amount.

According to the law, the amount of contributions to the SNT is established exclusively by the general meeting of members of the SNT (clause 10, clause 1, article 21 of the Law on Horticultural Associations).

If the target contribution is established by another body, for example, the Board, such a contribution is illegal!

In practice, many SNT Statutes delegate the authority to set fees to the Board or the Chair of the SNT. However, according to the Law on Horticultural Associations, this issue falls within the exclusive competence of the general meeting of members of the SNT, therefore, such a provision of the Charter will be invalid, since it is contrary to the law (clause 5, article 16 of the Law on Horticultural Associations).

In cases in which we protect the rights of gardeners and summer residents, the establishment of a targeted contribution by the SNT Board is the most common reason for refusing to collect debts on targeted contributions.

4. Should a new member of the SNT, by purchasing a plot from a former member of the SNT, pay off his debts on contributions?>

There are cases when, upon joining the SNT, the Chairman requires the new member of the SNT to pay off the debt on special-purpose or membership fees.

The debt can be transferred from the debtor to another person on the grounds provided for by law, or by agreement between the former member of the SNT and the new member with the mandatory consent of the SNT to such a transfer of debt (clause 1 of article 392.2, clauses 1 and 2 of article 391 of the Civil Code of the Russian Federation ).

The law does not contain provisions that a new member of the SNT, when acquiring a land plot, transfers the debts of the previous member of the SNT. Therefore, if there is no debt transfer agreement between the old and new member of the SNT, it is illegal to demand that the new member of the SNT repay the debt!

5. Is it possible to recover from a gardener who has lost his membership in the SNT, the debt on earmarked contributions?

Based on our judicial practice in protecting the rights of gardeners, we believe that this question must be answered in the negative.

By its legal nature, a target contribution is the price that a member of the SNT must pay in order to “buy” a share in joint ownership of a common use object. For example, by paying a target contribution for the construction of power grid facilities, a member of the SNT receives a share in the common ownership of these facilities.

By law, common property acquired with earmarked contributions can only be owned by members of the SNT (clause 2, article 4 of the Law on Horticultural Associations). If a member of the SNT, prior to leaving the SNT, did not pay the targeted contribution, then, based on the logic of the law, he did not acquire ownership of the common property and, having left the SNT, he will not acquire it. And if so, then the recovery from him of the cost of this share will be unjust enrichment of the remaining members of the SNT, which is illegal (Article 1102 and Clause 1 of Article 1104 of the Civil Code of the Russian Federation).

In addition, such a penalty is meaningless from another point of view. For example, the court exacted 50,000.00 rubles from Ivanov, a former member of the SNT. arrears in targeted contributions for the construction of the road, which means that the court recognized that Ivanov had a share in the joint ownership of the road. In connection with the withdrawal from the SNT, he must be returned the cost of his share on the road, which is usually recognized by the court as equal to the size of the target contribution. That is, the SNT, having recovered from the former member of the SNT the debt on the targeted contribution for the road, must return this contribution to him in connection with the withdrawal from the SNT.

It turns out that when leaving the SNT, the obligation to pay the debt earmarked contributions such a gardener stops. It makes sense to collect debts on earmarked contributions only from the current member of the SNT, but not from the former.

We examined the main problems, but not all, that gardeners and summer residents face in the courts when establishing, paying and collecting targeted contributions from them.

New law on gardeners, which entered into force on 01/01/2019, changed legal regulation activities of SNT bodies, incl. Chairman of the partnership, which should be reflected in the new Charter of SNT 2019.

On January 1, 2019, a new law on SNT-FZ dated 29.2017 No. 217-FZ “On the conduct of gardening and horticulture by citizens for their own needs and on amendments to certain legislative acts” came into force Russian Federation».

On January 01, 2019, the new law on SNT-FZ dated 29.2017 No. 217-FZ “On the conduct of gardening and horticulture by citizens for their own needs and on amendments to certain legislative acts of the Russian Federation” finally came into force.

The new law on gardeners has changed the legal regulation of the activities of SNT bodies, incl. Boards of garden partnerships, which should be reflected in the new Charter of SNT 2019. In this regard, it is necessary to restructure to work according to the new rules, incl. and the Board, which was elected before 01/01/2019.

From January 01, 2019, the Federal Law of 29.2017 No. 217-FZ “On the conduct by citizens of gardening and horticulture for their own needs and on amendments to certain legislative acts of the Russian Federation” comes into force. It replaces the Federal Law of April 15, 1998 366-FZ "On horticultural, horticultural and country non-profit associations of citizens."

When rendering legal assistance gardeners, our SNT lawyers have recently been increasingly confronted with the following question: “Does the new owner of the land plot need to pay fees for the acquired country cottage area which the previous owner did not pay before the sale of the land”?

Often, during a divorce, an unscrupulous spouse tries to take the business out of the division of joint property, for example, by selling shares in a joint company to third parties at low prices.

In connection with the numerous questions of gardeners, our SNT lawyers explain the question of whether it is possible to use such a document as "Project of organization and development" Or is it completely cancelled? A word to our dacha lawyers.

Due to the numerous questions from gardeners, our gardening partnership lawyers would like to clarify In what organizational and legal forms can horticultural, horticultural and dacha non-profit associations be transformed?

4.79/5 (53)

Who is required to pay a membership fee

The legislation does not prohibit having a plot on the territory of the SNT, but at the same time not being a member of such a partnership. Accordingly, joining a number of gardeners is a voluntary matter, and targeted contributions will be paid only by those who have officially joined the partnership. Moreover, if a person simply owns a plot on the territory of the SNT, then he will not be able to enjoy the benefits of such membership.

Practice shows that a large number of owners are wondering if it is necessary to pay a targeted fee if a person is engaged in individual farming, and the site is only within the territory of the SNT, but does not act as part of it in any way? The law provides for an exact rule in this regard, namely, the absence of the obligation to pay a fee for those persons who are not registered as members of the SNT.

There is also the point of acquiring objects that will be used by all land owners on the territory of the partnership, regardless of whether membership is confirmed or not. In this case, individual gardeners are entitled to participate in financing the arrangement of places for common use, but no one can oblige them to provide money either.

ATTENTION! View the completed sample application for withdrawal from the SNT:

You can not join the SNT

Obtaining membership in the SNT is recognized as a voluntary action on the part of the owner of the land.

The mere fact that the site is located on the territory of the partnership cannot force a person to join the SNT. In addition, persons who have previously registered membership can leave the organization at any time of their own free will.

Can I attend the meeting

Even if a person is not a member of the partnership, but is recognized as the owner of the site on the territory of such, then such a person can freely attend a meeting of members of the SNT, without having the right to vote. In addition, the owner may request accounting and other documents for which the chairman of the SNT cannot ask for an amount greater than that provided for creating copies of papers.

Attention! Our qualified lawyers will assist you free of charge and around the clock on any issues.

The procedure for establishing the membership fee and its amount

According to federal law, the size of membership fees for a non-profit organization such as SNT is determined by the decision of all members, that is, by voting. The owners themselves decide how they will form the general budget of the partnership. The establishment of a contribution by other bodies of the subject is not recognized as legal, and therefore does not require payment.

Some Charters of such partnerships contain information that the chairman is entitled to independently establish the contribution. However, this provision of the founding document contradicts the provisions of the law, since it refers the issue of contributions to the competence of the general meeting of members of the SNT. Practice also shows that most of the disputes in this area arise just about the establishment of contributions.

Watch the video. Do I need to join a gardening partnership?

Should a new member of the SNT, by purchasing a plot from a former member of the SNT, pay off his debts on contributions

It is not uncommon for a person, when registering a plot, to find out that the previous owner had arrears in contributions, and as a result, the chairman demands to reimburse the new owner. However, without the consent of the new owner, if there is common grounds succession (Civil Code of the Russian Federation), such a requirement will not be considered legal.

Notice! The legislator does not assume the transfer of debt on membership fees to the new owner of the land, regardless of how much debt is set. Without an agreement between the parties, the chairman has no right to make claims to the new owner, just as he has no right to refuse membership.

Is it possible to recover a debt from a gardener who has lost membership in SNT

The meaning of the target contribution for members of the SNT is to acquire ownership of a part of the common areas. That is, gardeners pay for the use of common benefits provided for members of the partnership. When a person loses membership, then the payment of contributions stops, since the person has nothing more to do with SNT, even though he retains ownership of the site on the territory of the partnership.

The meaning of such sentiments of the legislator is that the contributions are aimed at acquiring a share in the ownership of common property. Without paying contributions, a person does not acquire rights to such property, and accordingly, he will not be able to acquire such property even after he leaves the SNT.

And if you demand money from a person for something that he has not acquired and does not plan, then such actions can be considered as unjust enrichment on the part of the members and the chairman of the SNT.

If the court recognizes that a person must return the debt on contributions, there will be recognition of the property rights of that person to the common property even after leaving the SNT.

Or, after the loss of membership, the person must return the money that was transferred as a debt on the contribution. Accordingly, debt collection is advisable only if the current member of the partnership has one.

What threatens non-payers

As soon as a member of the SNT ceases to pay dues, the chairman is entitled to go to court to recover the debt that has formed. If the claim is satisfied, then from the gardener cash collected by force, including through the involvement of bailiffs.

Also, a measure of influence on the debtor may be the exclusion of such a partnership, which occurs by holding a general meeting and voting by all members of the SNT. After such a verdict, the person ceases to be liable for membership fees, but also loses ownership of various infrastructure facilities on the territory of the partnership.

The right to restrict a person's access to public facilities in the SNT of other members, headed by the chairman, is vested in the Federal Law regulating the activities of such partnerships. Accordingly, a person will only have a land plot, and all other benefits and amenities provided for on the territory of the SNT will be inaccessible to the non-payer.

This brochure is compiled from frequently asked questions that we have to deal with at numerous gardening conferences and in the legal service.

I want to warn you right away: gardeners do not agree with all the answers, they argue with many and consider the current situation unfair. The fact is that we consider controversial situations not from the point of view of justice, but from the point of view of legality. The laws, however, today are so imperfect, so inconsistent with each other that gardeners are outside the legal field. The state is trying to shift the solution of almost all the problems of gardeners, whether it is the implementation of a “dacha amnesty” or compliance with fire safety requirements, to the gardeners themselves! Officials almost always answer requests for help: “Collect money and do it” ... And it’s completely cannibalistic practice to impose all sorts of fines on gardening associations for “non-compliance with norms and rules” ...
Alas, while the normal legislative work in our area is being replaced everywhere by imitation and talking, and if some legislative acts slip through, they, as a rule, lead to a worsening of the situation and the emergence of new problems. An example of this is another simplification of the "dacha amnesty", adopted before the last elections to the State Duma. The result is massive boundary disputes between neighbors. Boundary conflict in judicial practice is the most difficult (and expensive!) case to be resolved, it can drag on for decades!
Dear gardeners, today we can only rely on ourselves, so we must learn to protect ourselves. Let's jointly resist the illegal demands of officials, raiders, all kinds of politicians who are trying to use us for their own selfish purposes...
And our main weapon in this will be legal knowledge. When you know even bad laws well, there is a chance to defend your rights and achieve justice!

Your Andrey Tumanov,
Chairman of the Board of the Moscow Union of Gardeners,
editor-in-chief of the newspaper "Your 6 acres".

1. What is SNT?

Answer: SNT is a horticultural non-profit partnership, a non-profit organization established by citizens on a voluntary basis to assist its members in solving common social and economic problems of gardening. Also, an association can be created in the form of a non-profit partnership and a consumer cooperative.

2. If I have a garden plot, should I build something there or can I just plant a garden?

Answer: in accordance with Art. 1 federal law“On horticultural, horticultural and dacha non-profit associations of citizens” No. 66-FZ of April 15, 1998 (hereinafter referred to as the law on gardeners), a garden land plot is provided to citizens for growing fruits, berries, vegetables, melons or other crops and potatoes, as well as for recreation (with the right to erect a residential building and utility buildings and structures). Thus, to achieve the goal of using a garden plot, it is enough to develop the land - plant a garden, plant a vegetable garden. Buildings are not required. On a summer cottage, the construction of a residential building or a residential building is a top priority.

3. Many years ago I was given a garden plot, now a building has been erected there. Why can't I own this property?

Answer: most garden plots were provided on a leasehold basis or on a fixed-term basis, in order, firstly, to give citizens the opportunity to grow food necessary for survival, and secondly, to withdraw land quickly and without compensation for the cost of property after harvesting. Currently, some of these sites are owned by the Russian Federation and are not subject to privatization. They can be rented. If the garden plot was built up, then the building may be in accordance with Art. 222 of the Civil Code of the Russian Federation is recognized as an unauthorized construction and, by a court decision, can be demolished at the expense of the person who built it.

4. If the partnership is non-profit, does this mean that I do not have to pay contributions?

Answer: non-profit organizations are organizations that do not have profit making as the main goal of their activities, but this does not mean that non-profit organizations do not conduct any economic activity. The activities of the CNT are aimed at meeting the needs of members in energy supply, water supply, and so on, and contributions are collected precisely to achieve these goals.

5. Is it possible to plant coniferous and deciduous trees instead of fruit trees?

Answer: in the garden and summer cottage, the possibility of planting non-fruit trees is not provided, and in the garden plot, planting of any trees and shrubs is not provided at all.

6. Should the SNT contain the territory adjacent to the external borders (behind the common fence)?

Answer: The answer to this question is contained in the acts of local governments in whose territory the association is located.

7. What taxes do I have to pay if I own a plot in SNT?

Answer: in accordance with Art. 2 Law of the Russian Federation of 09.12.1991

2003-1 “On Taxes on Property of Individuals”, a residential building, apartment, room, cottage, garage, other building, premises and structure, as well as a share in the common ownership of this property are recognized as taxation objects. Exempted from paying property tax Heroes Soviet Union and Heroes of the Russian Federation, as well as persons awarded the Order of Glory of three degrees, disabled people of groups I and II, disabled since childhood, participants in the Civil and Great Patriotic Wars and some other categories of citizens.

Tax on buildings, premises and structures is not paid from residential buildings with a living area of ​​​​up to 50 square meters and utility buildings and structures located on plots in horticultural and summer cottage non-profit associations of citizens with total area up to 50 square meters. In addition, in accordance with Chap. 31 "Local taxes" of the Tax Code of the Russian Federation, land plots that are on the right of ownership, life-long inheritable possession and permanent unlimited use are recognized as the object of taxation. No one is exempted from paying land tax, however, regulatory legal acts representative bodies of municipalities may establish tax incentives grounds and procedure for their application.

Thus, a citizen must pay tax on property belonging to him, and it must also be remembered that membership fees include tax on public property of SNT.

8. Is the garden plot inherited?

Answer: garden land is inherited along with the rest of the property of the deceased. Membership is not inherited, as it is a personal non-property right.

9. Can the garden plot be sold?

Answer: the owner has the right to dispose of his property at his own discretion, including selling, donating, pawning. The contract for the sale of real estate can be drawn up in a simple written form, must contain all the essential conditions (object, price, and so on) and is subject to mandatory state registration in management Federal Service state registration, cadastre and cartography.

The right of the buyer to the land plot arises from the moment of state registration.

10. What should be the infrastructure of SNT? Is electricity required?

Answer: the question of creating the infrastructure of the association is the exclusive competence of the general meeting of members (meeting of authorized persons) of the SNT. If the majority of members do not want to create any object of infrastructure, then no one can oblige to make contributions for the creation of such objects.

However, this provision does not apply to the necessary engineering infrastructure facilities - a fire pond, for example, or motor pumps - they must always be, regardless of the decision of the general meeting of members.

11. Who sets the annual fee?

Answer: the determination of the amount of contributions belongs to the exclusive competence of the general meeting of members (meeting of authorized persons) of the SNT.

12. Do I have the right to register in my garden house?

Answer: by resolutions of the Constitutional Court of the Russian Federation of June 30, 2011 No. 13-P and of April 14, 2008 No. 7-P, paragraph two of Art. 1 of the Law on Gardeners is recognized as inconsistent with the Constitution of the Russian Federation insofar as it excludes the possibility of registering citizens at the place of residence in residential buildings owned by them, which are suitable for permanent residence and are located on garden plots related to agricultural land and lands of settlements.

In accordance with Art. 20 of the law on gardeners, the general meeting of members of the SNT is the supreme governing body of such an association.

The legislator does not directly indicate that the weight of a vote (the number of votes) somehow depends on the amount of property belonging to this member. We can see an example of a direct indication of this in paragraph 4 of Art. 49 of the Federal Law of December 26, 1995 No. 208-FZ "On Joint Stock Companies":

“decisions on issues are made by the general meeting of shareholders by a three-quarters majority vote of shareholders - owners of voting shares participating in the general meeting of shareholders” and clause 4 of Art. 146 of the Housing Code of the Russian Federation dated December 29, 2004 No. 188-FZ: “Decisions on other issues are made by a majority vote of the total number of votes of the members of the partnership present at the general meeting or their representatives.”

Thus, regardless of the number of land plots, a citizen can be a member of the SNT only once and has one vote at the general meeting of members.

In accordance with Art. 1 of the law on gardeners, membership fees - funds periodically contributed by members of the SNT to pay employees who have concluded employment contracts with such an association, and other current expenses of such an association.

In essence, membership fees go to the maintenance of the legal entity and its governing bodies. Please note: not the maintenance of the property, but the legal entity itself - stationery and postage, duties, legal costs, wage, taxes and fees.

If the rights and obligations of members are equal, then the participation of each member in the maintenance of the legal entity must be equal.

Separately, we note that in accordance with the charter of the SNT, a special fund can be formed in it, which consists of funds state support, income from entrepreneurial activities of SNT, membership and entrance fees. With the funds of the special fund, property is created that belongs to a legal entity - the SNT itself.

After the liquidation of the SNT, the funds remaining after settlements with creditors are distributed equally among the former members of the SNT. Thus, membership fees are equal for members regardless of the size/number of garden plots occupied.

The situation is different for earmarked contributions. According to the Civil Code of the Russian Federation, the owner bears the burden of maintaining his property, therefore, the owner of three sections (as a co-owner of three shares in common property, if the shares are properly registered) will pay a triple contribution for the repair of the road inside the SNT.

However, according to Art. 245 of the Civil Code of the Russian Federation "If the shares of participants in shared ownership cannot be determined on the basis of the law and are not established by agreement of all its participants, the shares are considered equal."

Based on the foregoing, we can conclude that in the event of the liquidation of SNT, property (in monetary terms, after its implementation) will be divided among the members in equal shares.

Consequently, in the absence of an agreement between members on the size of the shares, earmarked contributions must also be equal for all members of the SNT.

88. In our SNT there are plots whose owners do not cultivate them, we have to mow them ourselves. Can we sell them?

Answer: You can only dispose of the property that belongs to you. It is obvious that the abandoned plot has an owner. The disposal of such a site (even if they were given shareware use) is a fraud. If there are abandoned lands in the SNT, we recommend that you contact the Rosreestr, the inspectors of the state land control.

89. What to do with the land, the owner of which has died, but the heirs have not appeared?

Answer: nothing can be done about this area. In accordance with the procedure established by law, such property is recognized as escheat and becomes the property of the municipality.

90. I bought a plot from an SNT member who didn't pay dues. Should I pay off his debts?

Answer: no, they shouldn't. The board must collect debts on contributions from the seller.

91. The chairman refuses to sign the act of agreeing on the boundaries of the land plot and to issue me a certificate stating that the land was legally provided to me. Motivates by the fact that I have not paid dues. Is he right?

Answer: no, the chairman of the board in this case is not right.

92. How is the redemption price of property seized for state needs determined?

Answer: in accordance with Art. 281 of the Civil Code of the Russian Federation, the price is determined by agreement with the owner of the site. When determining the redemption price, it includes market price land plot and real estate located on it, as well as all losses caused to the owner by the withdrawal of the land plot, including losses that he incurs in connection with the early termination of his obligations to third parties, including lost profits. In the absence of an agreement on the redemption price, the issue can be resolved in court.

93. Why in SNT, not every gardener, but the association as a whole, is a subscriber under an energy supply agreement?

Answer: for the reason that the energy supply agreement is concluded not with each specific gardener, but with the legal entity as a whole.

94. Why do gardeners have to pay for losses in electrical networks?

Answer: the content of this issue is subject to debate. In accordance with Art. 210 of the Civil Code of the Russian Federation, the owner bears the burden of maintaining his property - in this case, electrical networks. If an energy supply agreement is concluded with each specific gardener, then payment for losses in the networks is not made.

95. Is SNiP 30-02-97* normative document, whose requirements are mandatory for all gardeners?

Planning and development of territories of horticultural (dacha) associations of citizens, buildings and structures”, which is included in the List of National Standards and Codes of Rules, approved by Decree of the Government of the Russian Federation of June 21, 2010 No. 1047-r, which, according to Part 4 of Art. 6 of the Federal Law of December 30, 2009

No. 384-FZ "Technical regulations on the safety of buildings and structures" are mandatory for application.

96. I have a privatized plot in SNT. I pay taxes to the state, why should I pay any more money for my privatized land?

Answer: The obligation to pay land tax lies with each owner of the land. Registration of the right of ownership to a land plot does not entail the termination of the obligation to participate in the maintenance of common property and the legal entity itself. Thus, membership and earmarked contributions in the partnership still need to be paid by the member.

97. A member of the CNT who did not pay dues has died. How to make the heirs pay contributions - the father's debts and the money that they themselves owe as new owners.

Answer: it is possible to force the heirs to pay the debts of the testator in a judicial proceeding. Please note that you can recover only those funds that the deceased did not pay. Those "debts for the plot" that arose after the death of the testator cannot be recovered. The owner of the land plot pays membership fees if he is a member, or pays under an agreement if he is not a member and such an agreement is concluded. If the contract is not concluded and the citizen is not a member, he has no obligation to deposit any funds to the cash desk of the association.

98. How and where can I find out who is the owner of the land?

Answer: contact the territorial department of Rosreestr (at the location of the property). If the right to a land plot is registered, you will be given a certificate of the right holder.

99. We don't want to live in SNT. What will happen to our land after the liquidation of SNT?

Answer: plots belonging to citizens will remain with them in the same right as before. common property is likely to be sold. And then the owner will be able to independently set the amount of payment for the use of his property.

100. When will it be changed current law about gardeners?

Answer: Unfortunately, no one knows the answer to this question. From the point of view of common sense, this law should be repealed and regulate relations between property owners in accordance with the provisions of the civil legislation of the Russian Federation and the Constitution.
