Welcome Neighbors to Gale’s Manor

Ballot Question A - PASSED

The Gale’s Manor Board of Directors has proposed several updates to modernize our 1997 founding documents.  You may review the final changes at this PDF link:

HOA updates Phase 2, draft-4 092525.pdf

This ballot proposal has passed by a simple majority, and will go into effect for 2026 and beyond.


Ballot Question B - FAILED

The Board, in order to keep Gale’s Manor HOA financially solvent, recommends increasing the annual assessment (dues), beginning in 2026, to $425.00. 

This ballot proposal failed to get 2/3 of the vote necessary to pass.
The Board will meet before the end of the year to determine the 2026 assessment. The Board does have the ability to approve a modest increase of up to 20% of the current assessment.

Of the votes cast there was 4 to 1 support, but that does not reach 2/3 of the lots.

Proposed Warehouse Development

These downloads show the proposed warehouse at the PV Outlet Center. The developers drawings have been carefully overlaid on area maps to show the placement, including the very tall retainer wall of the proposed warehouse, in relationship with the nearby residences.


The plans of SK Realty did not meet with approval by the town’s commissioners, but they still own the property have every intention of building a warehouse on it. If you hear of any new use proposals or actions by the Town of Perryville, please contact a member of the HOA Board immediately.


For scale, the END wall of the warehouse, at 350’ is longer than the length of a football field. It will face the homes on Penny Lane and Hillside Lane.
