April 20th meeting of the Central Park Master Association

You should have recently received the mailing from Kramer-Triad announcing the 2011 annual meeting of the Central Park Master Association, which will be held on Wednesday, April 20, 2011 at the Shelby Twp. Municipal Building. Sign-in starts at 6:00 p.m. and the meeting will begin promptly at 7:00 p.m.

The Central Park Master Association is the homeowners association for the entire Central Park planned unit development, which includes the Manors and Kensington Condos, along with the Meadows and Gardens single family subdivisions. The Association is responsible for maintaining the Central Park ring roads and streetlighting as well as all of the retention ponds and landscaping in the Community Areas. The Community Areas locations can be viewed by clicking on the "Exhibit C" link on this page).

The Central Park Master Association's 2011 Budget can be viewed here. All owners in the Central Park developments pay $190 per year to fund the Master Association's budget. The Manors Condo Association pays the annual $190 fee for all Manors co-owners from our budgeted revenues.

Each of the four developments in Central Park have the right to elect one representative to the Master Association's Board of Directors. The Board members serve staggered two-year terms and it's the Manors and Kensington Board member's terms that expire this year. I have already been nominated to run again and I believe that Ted McCoy also intends to run again for the Kensington spot on the Board.

All owners in the four Central Park developments are entitled to vote for the Manors and Kensington Board representatives. We need to have at least 35% of all the owners represented either in person at the meeting or by their General Proxy in order to legally hold the annual meeting and election. Currently, there is no other business to be voted on at the meeting, however it is possible that someone could bring up an issue from the floor that could be voted on that evening.

If we cannot obtain a quorum on the 20th, we will have to reschedule the meeting for another date and incur the additional cost of another mass mailing to notify everyone. Therefore, if there is the slightest possibility that you cannot attend the annual meeting on the 20th, please sign and return the General Proxy to Kramer-Triad so it will count towards the quorum. If it turns out that you can attend the meeting, your Proxy will be returned to you at the door when you sign-in.

Call me at 726-0317 if you have any questions about the General Proxy or if you would like me to take it to the meeting for you and save a stamp.

See you on the 20th!
