2024 Online Ballot Delay Updates

We apologize for the delay in online ballots going out to residents. We are actively escalating with Cedar Management through several channels as to what the issue is and when this will be resolved.

If there is no resolution by Monday morning (or Tuesday if closed for holiday) the board president will make an in-person office visit to their Raleigh office.

To ensure impartiality in board elections the property management company is responsible for carrying out the election. The board’s only direct involvement is at the conclusion when the secretary verifies the ballot counts. Voting will be active through March 1st.

We will provide more updates shortly.

Note: Follow-ups were moved here to reduce clutter on the main page.

Braeloch Dues & Statements (January 2024 Update From Cedar Management)

Good Day,

Happy New Year Everyone!

The 2024 statements were slightly delayed but they have been mailed and emailed to everyone.

Please be assured that although the due date is January 1, 2024, no late fees will occur until March 1, 2024. We understand the management transition has been difficult and we want to ensure that everyone has the opportunity to receive their statements and get acclimated to making payments on the portal.

We usually like to have statements go out by December 1. However, due to the transition the statements were a bit delayed for Braeloch this year.

If you have any questions or concerns please call in or reach out to support@mycmg.com.

Please refer to your welcome kit that has been mailed and email to each of you. There is helpful information on how to make payments on the portal and you will need personal information from that welcome kit.

Have a great day & don’t forget to reach out if you need assistance, we are here to help!

Sincerely,

Cedar Management Group on behalf of Braeloch Homeowner’s Association, Inc.
