  • Garden Homes of Dearborn Park (the group I described above)
Thanks for the list. More than I even thought, although I somehow thought there also was a master association, which isn't the case.

So, a hypothetical question, actually a couple:

Let's say there is actually a serious proposal to cut through access from Clark at Taylor. For the purpose of argument it would cut through and eliminate the open space between two townhouse clusters (within an single association) and connect to the existing east/west street that connects to State. How many of the associations would need to give approval? Has that section of street ever been officially closed, or does it still exist as a right of way? Could the city just say "we're doing this?"

Similar question for if a developer had an agreement to buy out the owners of the townhouse cluster at Roosevelt/Plymouth, and they had the required number of votes from that association. Do the other associations have a voice as well?

This could get really gnarly.
