History

Carrollton Manor Improvement Association (CMIA) was organized and incorporated in 1941. Initially, meetings were held in member’s houses or on their front porches and only a handful of residents paid dues. During the 60s and 70s, the number of year-round residents exceeded the number of vacation homes. During this period, the community operated a teen center in a basement structure that was attached to the Clubhouse. This structure was torn down in mid 80s after termites were found and no funds were available for repairs. The community felt the loss of a community meeting place. So, in the 90's, the Board undertook a concerted effort to enroll in the County's Special Community Benefits District program. This allows the community to collect dues as part of the county tax bill and provides an income stream to fund maintenance and improvements. Through careful management of our money, we managed to raise sufficient funds to re-build the clubhouse.
