• Aside from the single detached condos being built along Central Park North, there are only two remaining finished condos that have not yet closed and both have binding sales contracts. Unit 33 on Lexington West is scheduled to close on April 26th and Unit 103 on Watling is scheduled to become the 106th closed unit sometime in May. Once all of the 14 single detached condos on Central Park North are built and sold, the Association will have a total of 119 units. The developer does not plan to build any of the remaining 47 units until the market for duplex condos improves.
• The 22 Mile Road rezoning that I posted about on Feb. 22nd is nearing final approval. The rezoning and special land use request for a skilled nursing care facility has received a recommendation for approval from the Shelby Twp. Planning Commission. The Shelby Twp. Board of Trustees will hold a Public Hearing and make a final decision on the request at their May 4, 2010 meeting. More information can be found on this web page (scroll down to the bottom of the page for the latest news). This subject is also being discussed on the Central Park Master Association Group page on Facebook.
  
• Lombardo Homes is planning to ask Shelby Twp. officials for permission to build single-family homes instead of clustered condos on the Kensington Phase 2 parcel that is located south of Central Park North and east of Central Park East. Greg Windingland of Lombardo Homes explained their plans to the Central Park Master Association Board of Directors at their April 5th meeting. At the Board's suggestion, Lombardo will hold an informational meeting on May 11, 2010 to present their plans to all Central Park residents prior to any public hearings. I have prepared this web page that explains the information Greg presented on April 5th and the concerns that the Board shared with him. The web page also contains the location and time of the May 11th informational meeting. This subject is also being discussed on the Central Park Master Association Group page on Facebook.
