On the Move-May 21, 2015

MADA Office Holiday Schedule

We wish all of our members a safe and happy Memorial Day Weekend. MADA's office in Annapolis will be closed on Monday, May 25th, in honor of Memorial Day. We will reopen on Tuesday, May 26th.

Please Complete the 2014 Economic Impact Study Today!

With the assistance of Auto Outlook, Maryland Automobile Dealers Association surveys dealer members to gather information to prepare an Economic Impact Report. This report highlights the tremendous economic impact the automobile industry has on the State of Maryland. The Association uses this report when dealing with the legislature, governmental agencies and the media. This is a very important report that cannot be prepared without your help!

Please take a few minutes to complete the attached survey and return it as soon as possible. This new format is all-electronic, allowing you to complete the survey on your computer. Hint: You will need to open it in Adobe Reader or Adobe Acrobat to fill in the text boxes. When completed, you can simply click on "Submit" at the top right of the form which will initiate a return response by email. Please follow the prompts in order to return by email. You also have the option of saving the completed form and returning it as an email attachment. All responses will be held in strict confidence.

If you operate more than one dealership, please complete one survey form for each location. We will provide dealers a copy of the report upon its publication. We appreciate your participation and thank you in advance for your timely response.

MADA to Host Two Spring Title and Registration Seminars

The Maryland Automobile Dealers Association, along with managers from the Motor Vehicle Administration, will present a seminar that offers the opportunity to learn new procedures and review old procedures.

Due to the constant changes of regulations governing the sale of a vehicle, MADA strongly encourages individuals from the F&I, Sales, Business Management, and Title & Registration Departments to attend this seminar.

We will also address any changes as a result of the 2015 Legislative Session. This is a great opportunity to network with your ERT representatives as well as your MVA representatives.

Space is limited so register as soon as possible!!

MNCTDA/PAC Update

MADA would like to thank and recognize the following dealerships who have contributed to the Association's Political Action Committee. If your dealership is not on the list, we urge you to get on board today! Your financial contribution allows us to support those Maryland legislators who have put our interests first and who have supported our industry in the past. We must have a presence in Annapolis, but unfortunately that costs money.

If you would like to send in your contribution today, please download the contribution form and return it today. You may provide a corporate check payable to MNCTDA/PAC and send it to RSM McGladrey, 100 International Dr., Suite 1400, Baltimore, MD 21202.
