Time dedicated to you for architectural changes: There have been questions about why the Community Service Coordinator's (CSC) office is open for architectural changes from 9-11 AM. This time is reserved for our residents to come in and meet with Katy Mosier to discuss what's needed to get their project off the ground and compliant with governing documents. The employees in the front office can answer some, but not all, of the home improvement questions, and you may be asked to return during the 9-11 AM time frame. When the CSC's office is not open, the CSC is busy processing home sales (11 so far in November), and homes going into escrow, which involves working with the realtors and title companies, as well as the Architectural Compliance Team for home inspections (there are 10 to date in November). Violation letters are also processed through this office (there were around 400 in November); with 400 letters written you can imagine how many phone calls are received with questions about the violations. This provides a little insight as to what happens when the office isn't open. Please plan to bring your requests to the CSC's office from 9-11 AM, Monday-Friday and please be considerate to our employees out front when this time frame is brought to your attention. If you forget the times, they are published in the Tipster monthly on page 2 under Community Services.

Seeking SCOV Trailblazers and 2nd Generation SCOV Homeowners - On February 15, 2017, the Marketing Committee is hosting a 30th Anniversary celebration for the community. We will be honoring the "Trailblazers" who moved into the first homes in Sun City 30 years ago. If you are one of the original SCOV homeowners (1987 to mid1988), we are trying to locate you to send you a personal invitation to the celebration. Today, many homeowners are 2nd Generation; i.e., children of the original "Trailblazers." We would also like to know who you are and encourage you to attend the celebration and share your stories about why you love living in SCOV. Please contact Joy Huxtable at joyeh1115@gmail.com or call 520-548-2653, if you are a Trailblazer, or know how to contact them. In addition, if you are directly related to a Trailblazer, please also contact Joy.
Rent Your Home? Please note:
- Your Facility Access Cards (Membership cards) are non-transferable and may only be used by you. You may not give your renters your cards.
- Before any cards are issued to renters, we MUST have your Facility Access Cards on file in the office AND your HOA dues must be up to date.
- A renter form must be completed by you and returned by your renter(s) when they come in to receive their cards. You will find the form online.
- There is a $25 renter registration fee (for up to two cards)
- Please note the front office will not keep on file any future rental agreements. It is the responsibility of the renter to submit all paperwork upon arrival to SCOV.
Interesting tidbit: Did you know that the Programs and Facilities department booked over 9,000 events/rooms/activities during the year 2016? If you get the chance, please tell Pam and Coco "thanks" for their hard work.
Getting to know the GM: I'm originally from Idaho and love sports, including golf, skiing and basketball. My wife, Sheryl, and I are high school sweethearts and have been married for 38 years.
