LOT 502 AMENDMENT VOTE

THE AMENDMENT HAS PASSED!  As announced at our Annual Meeting, we finally received a majority vote in August to add Lot 502 to our Master Deed as a common element.  The Board has signed off on the official amendment document and the Association's lawyer is filing the update with the County Clerk's office. 

Just as a reminder to everyone ... Lot 502 contains a leach field and is not a buildable lot.  It was owned by Middle Township due to unpaid taxes from many years ago.  In November/December 2021, it showed up on the Township's Land Auction Listing but was subsequently removed after the Board informed them of the leach field.  Lot 512 was also listed with the Land Auction and was auctioned off in January 2022.  During the "sale" process, a lien imposed by our Association for unpaid dues against Middle Township was identified.  An agreement was reached between our lawyer and the Middle Township Solicitor to do a mutually beneficial "swap".  If we would release the lien on Lot 512 so the sale could be completed, the Association would receive the deed to Lot 502 and it would be removed from the tax rolls.  (Please note:  The Township doesn't pay Association Dues on land it acquires via unpaid taxes.)  The only caveat was passing an Amendment to our Master Deed to make Lot 502 a common element.  Now that the amendment paperwork is being filed, the Township's sale of Lot 512 will proceed ... And we, the Association, will be able to collect dues on that lot!

Thank you to all the homeowners who took the time to vote on this amendment!
