Inflation and projects

Hello all, Our HOA budget has taken a hit this year. Heating and cooling costs are up about 50%, everything else is over budget by 10%, and we have had more repair bills than anticipated. How do we generate the income we need? Special Assessment vs. raising HOA monthly dues? A combination of both? What is your HOA doing to fill the gap? Thank you for answering this question.
