Marin Valley Cooperative (MVC)
MVC is a non-profit public corporation established on September 4, 2024. This was done according to objectives in the PAC Bylaws “to create whatever legal entity is required which conforms to state law to assume ownership of Marin Valley Mobile Country Club.” The intent is for MVC to acquire the Park and convert the Park to a limited equity housing cooperative (LEHC). Although acquisition will take some time, it is important to start building the democratic governance foundation of MVC by inviting residents to join MVC.MVC is a seniors-only community, requiring a single occupant/owner to be at least fifty-five (55) years of age upon purchase of a home or one resident homeowner to be at least fifty-five (55) years of age upon the homeowner’s purchase.
Membership
A Member in “Good Standing” is a person who owns and resides in a manufactured home (“Home”) in the community and who has completed the joining agreement and paid their $25 joining fee, as well as any spouse or partner in civil union and the other adult Members of their household who have signed the Joining Agreement.
Residents have been invited to join MVC by signing and returning the Joining Agreement along with a $25 check (made out to Marin Valley Cooperative) for a refundable Joining Fee. To learn what the Joining Agreement is all about and where to drop off your signed copy with your check, click HERE.
