FAQs (Frequently Asked Questions):

The Ferrellgas field contains “y” or “n” or a blank (y=yes, n=no).  This is used by ASPOA for contract negotiations.  It is not used by Ferrellgas. 

 

This year we have a new information field.  It is “Do you need assistance  for being evacuated if a natural disaster (fire) occurs ?  ____”.  The ASPOA Fire Safety Committee chairman will be monitoring this information.

 

Membership cards were discontinued in 2009

 

As Membership Coordinator, I calculated my propane savings from Ferrellgas by being a member: average usage is 327 gallons of propane per year for 4 years.  This costs $625 at $1.91 vs. $747 at $2.28 for a savings of $122.  My usage is low so most of you will have more savings.

 

The membership fees are not pro-rated.  Dues paid in April will be posted through June 30 of the following year.  So, those who pay in March (and earlier) will need to pay again in June/July.  Memberships stay current through July 31 each year – one month of grace!
