(a) A debt service liquid reserve in an amount equal to or exceeding the total of all principal and interest payments due during the next 12 months on account of a mortgage loan or other long term financing of the continuing care retirement community taking into consideration any anticipated refinancing; and
(b) An operating liquid reserve in an amount equal to or exceeding the total of the community’s projected operating expenses for three months.
(2) The Department of Human Services may require a provider not meeting its reserve requirements to place the reserves in an escrow account.
(3) The notes to the provider’s annual audited financial statements shall state whether or not the reserve requirements have been met.
(4) The department may allow withdrawal or borrowing from the reserves in an amount not greater than 20 percent of the provider’s total reserves.
