Interesting Facts about the Silver Lake Institute
We are a 5013C corporation initially Chartered by the New York Legislature in 1857 with a new amended and current charter issued in 2016.
We are governed by a Board of Trustees made up of 12 cottage owners that are elected annually by the cottage owners. Trustees are elected for a three year term.
We are a community of both year round and seasonal owners who enjoy the sunsets, the lake and our neighbors.
The Lakefront greenway is owned by the Institute--all waterfront spaces are leased for an annual fee and must be maintained by the lessee. Any changes or improvements to the leased space must be approved by the Board of Trustees.
As a chartered Institute we are expected to offer programs in art, music, culture, education and spirituality during the months of July and August. We would hope that you would join in the fun and come to the Friday concerts, Saturday evening Coffee Houses, Sunday worship services, children's July 3rd bike parade, lectures desserts on the dock, and all of the other events on our packed summer calendar.
Saturday Mornings during July and August there is a morning cafe at Stoody Hall where you can come to meet with neighbors over a cup of coffee and a delicious breakfast. It is a great place to make new friends.
You pay a Silver Lake Institute tax which: pays for the upkeep of our historic buildings and the big blue dock, maintains our private roads, pays for the groundskeeper who provides the snow plowing in the winter and the mowing in the summer. These funds also assist the programming budget and allow for other improvements as necessary.
Garbage is picked up weekly and must have a sticker on each bag. Stickers may be purchased at the Institute office. Arrangements can be made to dispose of large items by contacting the Groundskeeper.
Alcoholic beverages are not permitted on any of the private grounds owned by the Institute including the waterfront, greenway, roads, buildings and parks. It is permitted on your private property and within your own buildings.
All property sales are subject to approval by the Board of Trustees. If you have other questions that your real estate agent can't answer, feel free to contact the Silver Lake Institute@frontier.com. We look forward to your becoming a part of this special community and look forward to meeting you and yours.

Q - WHAT ARE THE OUTER BORDERS OF THE SLI?
A - (Part
1) - The north-south borders of the Silver Lake Institute are between Camp Road and Chapman Road . The
east-west borders of the Silver Lake Institute are from the current and former
lands of the Charcoal Corral on the east and Silver Lake
on the west, but the eastern line is not straight and not easily defined here.
The southern border of the Village
of Perry is to the center
of Camp Road .
From the center of Camp Road
to the southern right of way of the same Camp Road is under the jurisdiction of
the Town of Castile , NY (originally a part of
the Silver Lake Institute before agreement was reached for the Town of Castile to take control
and ownership of it).
A - (Part
2) - Historically, Asbury
Camp & Retreat Center was SLI property. In 1959 it was
sold to the WNY Conference but remained within the SLI borders and tax
base. In 2016, the UpperNY Conference negotiated with the SLI and received
court approval to be separated and removed from the SLI grounds. There are
still individually owned lots on Lakeside Ave. that have joined SLI and are now
"little islands" of the Silver Lake Institute and therefore under its
jurisdiction.

BE BOTH
THEVILLAGE OF PERRY AND THE TOWN OF CASTILE ?

Village's borders extend beyond the Town of Perry
and actually into the Town of Castile --an
arrangement which gave the Village of Perry the long stretch of lake shoreline along Walker , Lake , and Euclid
Avenues in the Walker Tract. Therefore, Camp Road 's southern right of way is the
dividing line between the Silver Lake Institute and the southern lane of Camp Road belonging
to the Town of Castile ,
NY. The center of Camp Road
is where the Village of Perry jurisdiction begins, but both the Silver Lake
Institute and the Walker Road
section of the Village of Perry BOTH sit within the land area whose borders are
within the Town of Castile ,
NY. One does not need to know borders since the County's Emergency Number is
centralized with all Fire and Emergency Departments ensuring that callers will
receive more than one response to a Fire or Emergency call.
