Rush Lake Property Owners Association, Pinckney, MI, Official website.
August 6th Rush Lake POA board member meeting highlights.
Sentry management has taken over the administrative functions of Rush Lake POA. Emails that have been sent to the clerk are now forwarded to Sentry. Phone calls placed to the association are now forwarded to Sentry.
Sentry will receive these calls and emails and they will forward to the appropriate Rush Lake board member for resolution.
The Moon Shadows canals will be treated this coming Monday August 11th (weather permitting). This is the final treatment for the canals for 2025.
Overall, the lake has been in really good shape for boating. The May treatment of pellets has lasted about 12 weeks. Lake Pro will survey the lake and we will use the remaining funds in our lake account for treatments.
The association dirt roads will be graded starting August 8. A chloride treatment will take place when that is completed.

THREE PARKS & BOAT LAUNCH
The RLPOA actively manages maintenance of our three parks and boat launch. Services include benches and tables, lawn maintenance, summer port a johns and dog clean up stations.
Lake Improvement:
Rush Lake is a private spring-fed lake that covers approximately 130 acres. It is a shallow lake by many standards with an average depth of five to six feet with some areas measuring a depth of approximately 15 feet.
There is a court order that has set the height of the dam to keep water levels as consistent as mother nature allows.
Our contractors are obligated to post notification signs on the property shorelines in areas that they treat with herbicides. If your property is not affected by the herbicide treatments, you will not have signage posted on your property.
The board member responsible for Lake management and improvement is Joe Grech.
Road Grading and Maintenance.
All dirt roads in the association are maintained throughout the entire year. During spring until late fall, roads are graded, dust-controlled chloride treatments are applied, and gravel is added to maintain good conditions.
Rush Lake Road, Chambers, and Pettysville are county roads and thus are maintained by the county road commission. M-36 is a state road maintained by the State Highway Commission. The roads of Moon Shadows are maintained by the Moon Shadows Association. Our association contracts for road grading, snow plowing, and dust control.
During the winter months, the roads are cleared of snow once we have an accumulation of three inches or more.
Sand is provided at several locations within the association if the property owner needs sand for their driveway or approach areas.
Homeowners are asked to keep mailbox areas clear to allow the US Postal Service access for mail delivery.
All property owners must keep trees and brush growth clear and provide clear sight lines for traffic and pedestrian safety.
Members seeking special road maintenance issues should email our clerk with their concerns. Please include your name, address, and phone number.
The board member responsible for the roads is Pam Sevonty.
