It is with great sadness that we say that Joseph Ammar, a dear co-owner at Presidents Village, has passed away. Joseph was a kind and wonderful person who attended many of the PVCA events. He was a dear friend to many co-owners and a loving husband to his wife, Marie. Let’s keep the Ammar family in our thoughts and prayers during this difficult time. The Board of Directors put together a list of re-occurring violations that have unfortunately become serious problems within the complex. The Board has decided to begin charging fees for these violations. Please see the attached list of violations and their corresponding fees. If you have any questions or to report a possible violation or concern, please call the office at 586-574-1094.

We would like to remind co-owners to please close the security doors when you enter and exit the buildings. Please check to make sure that the door has closed tightly behind you. Co-owners will leave doors propped open at times. Please be aware that if an office worker, maintenance worker or member of the cleaning crew notice an open door, they will close it. This is for safety reasons. Thank you!
New Co-Owners!

Maintenance Issues
Please remember to call or email the Office if you have a Maintenance issue that you would like addressed. Unfortunately, many co-owners approach the Maintenance crew directly. While our workers always enjoy greeting co-owners, maintenance requests are required to go through the Office so they they can become official work orders. This makes the process fast and simple. Call the office at 586-574-1094 or email us at [email protected]
