Yorkshire Hills All Association Meeting planned for Wed Nov 18, 7pm
Yorkshire Hills All Association Meeting planned for Wed Nov 18, 7pm
Location: Tri county Sportsman League (Gun Club on Moon Rd) 8640 Moon Rd, Saline, MI 48176
Lower level
Agenda
2. Financials (Clarke Macy)
a. Annual statement
i. We have 97 lots in Yorkshire Hills and are collecting $40 dues for each of the lots (we still have three undeveloped lots in our neighborhood). The 2 homes at the entrance are exempted due to their care of the signs.
b. General info on those owing dues and next steps. (Liens on property)
c. Funds and expenditures:
i. See financial statements
ii. $1000 for insurance for common areas and the board.
iii. Landscaping expenses and maintenance for our two signs at the entrance graciously maintained by our front neighbors and the Wards who plant new flowers each year for which we are grateful.
iv. Website maintenance
v. Postage, mailings and legal fees (for liens)
vi. Social events and meeting incidentals (Tri county rental fee)
3. Project to light the front entrance signs (Fred Lupton)
a. For many years now we have been interested in finding a way to provide permanent lighting for our entrance signs for which the latest proposal has been to look at solar options on a commercial scale similar to the Saline Ridge entrance sign which is powered by a solar array just off Willis Rd., East of Moon. As discussed before we have hesitated doing an option of tying in with the new service provided by DTE due to the permanent expense and extreme high cost of initial installation upwards of $15,000.
i. October 2014: quote from Aarons landscaping for solar system at around $7700 but they could not find acceptable post location that would provide enough sun (southern exposure) and not be under power lines or in front yard of corner houses.
b. Current option is to come to an agreement to wire directly to the home at 9000 Yorkshire Dr.
i. Unsure if we can wire to both sides of entrance. (western sign will be priority).
4. Roads repairs (Steve Homan)
a. These are public roads maintained by Washtenaw County Roads Commission
i. Service Requests for road emergencies and routine maintenance can be immediately submitted through operations by calling 734.761.1500 during normal business hours, Monday through Friday, between 7:00 a.m. to 3:30 p.m., or via email at wcrc@wcroads.org.
b. See handouts provided by the county on major repair options.
5. Utility box repairs update from (Steve Homan)
6. Real estate update (after 8pm w Julie Picknel)
7. Interest in social gatherings (ask to be on email distributions for these events and follow us on Facebook.)
a. Ladies wine nights
b. Men’s night out…
c. Recent proposals for funds expenditures have also included reestablishing a neighborhood party for everyone to be included and especially as a get together for our new neighbors which we want to welcome to Yorkshire Hills.
d. Proposal for: Welcome gifts for new neighbors? ($75?)
8. Discussion of members of the board and opportunity for others to volunteer. We would really like more help.
9. New Business?

May 2015 Garage Sale
Hi Everyone!
I wanted to send a quick update and reminder regarding the garage sale week-end. The York Woods/Yorkshire Hills annual garage sale will be May 28, 29th & 30th from 9 AM - 2 PM. Everyone is welcome to join! I will have a helium tank and balloons at my house if anyone is interested in hanging some at your mailbox. Please contact me if you are interested in picking some up from me. (9343 Yorkshire Dr. - Saline, MI - 313-300-6259Call: 313-300-6259) Please pass this along to anyone who may not be on the neighborhood distribution list. I also wanted to let you remind you that there is a garage sale rally the next week for the Chad Tough Foundation. You are all welcome to participate in that garage sale rally during that time but you may also participate during the neighborhood sale in May and donate a portion of the proceeds to the Foundation. If you wish to do so, please contact Heidi Wuerthele at 734-717-8779Call: 734-717-8779 or Heidi@dancexplosion.net by May 22nd and she will pick up the Chad Tough signs for you to put in your yard letting buyers know you are participating. I know it's a bit confusing so please let me know if anyone has questions.
Thank you!
Barbara Torzewski
P.S. I'm still collecting money for garage sale signs if anyone is interested in helping out. I've been able to collect a total of $150 for the signs so far.
