The Village Place Board of Directors encourages homeowner participation at meetings to learn about the current topics that the Board is addressing, bring forth any issues of concern, as well as vote on any items that require such act. Make your vote count!
Stay Connected via Facebook. Did you know the residents of Village Place have a private Facebook page? You can share information with other neighbors about lost animals, items you would like to donate, lost and found items, request assistance or references for home projects, etc. This page is managed by a fellow Village Place resident and not the Board of Directors, so requests for property maintenance or work orders will not be handled from this site. As with any social media, please remember to be civil, courteous, respectful and helpful to others. To find the page, simply type in: Village Place – Social Events in the Facebook search bar.

Officer descriptions copied from Article XIII of the Bylaws:
President. The President shall be the chief executive officer of the Association. The President shall preside and may vote at all meetings of the Association and of the Board of Directors. The President shall have all of the general powers and duties which are usually vested in the office of the President of an association, including, but no limited to, the power to appoint committees from among the members of the Association from time-to-time as the President may in the President’s discretion deem appropriate to assist in the conduct of the affairs of the Association.
Vice-President. The Vice-President shall take the place of the President and perform the President’s duties whenever the President shall be absent or unable to act. If neither the President nor the Vice-President is able to act, the Board of Directors shall appoint some other member of the Board to do so on an interim basis. The Vice-President shall also perform such other duties as shall from time-to-time be imposed upon the Vice President by the Board of Directors.
Secretary. The Secretary shall keep the minutes of all meetings of the Board of Directors and the minutes of all meetings of the members of the Association; the Secretary shall have charge of the corporate seal, if any, and of such books and papers as the Board of Directors may direct; the Secretary shall, in general, perform all duties incident to the office of the Secretary.
Treasurer. The Treasurer shall have responsibility for the Association funds and securities and shall be responsible for keeping full and accurate accounts of all receipts and disbursements in books belonging to the Association. The Treasurer shall be responsible for the deposit of all monies and other valuable effects in the name and to the credit of the Association, and in such depositories as may, from time-to-time, be designated by the Board of Directors.
The board may appoint an Assistant Treasurer and an Assistant Secretary and such other officers as in their judgment may be necessary. Any two (2) offices except that of President and Vice-President may be held by one (1) person. Because Board positions are voluntary, those running should understand what is expected. In order to be a member of the board, you must be a homeowner in good standing (paying dues) at all times.
Even if you are not elected or do not want to run for a Board of Director position, the Board welcomes volunteers for various committees including, but not limited to, the Architectural Control Committee.
If you would like to help plan fun activities in the subdivision for any age group (think: Easter Egg Hunt, card groups, pick-up sports games, movie nights on the side of someone’s house) please send an email to vphboard@mivillageplace.com. If the activity is appropriate and acceptable, information can be shared on this website and the Village Place – Social Events Facebook page.
