SCOV Director Taillie has resigned to move closer to family. At Thursday's study session, Director Steve Taillie resigned from the Board indicating he and his wife, Judy, would be moving back to Chicago to be closer to family. This was Director Steve Taillie's second term on the Board of Directors. Previous directors Tut Tustison, Charlie Trull and Debra Arrett serving with Taillie spoke of the Board's accomplishments during the time Director Taillie served on the board and in other leadership roles. 2009 Long Range Planning Chair Leslie Platt also spoke. Accomplishments include concrete golf cart paths, stabilizing the HOA fee, updated house paint color and a paid librarian. During a General Manager transition in 2008 Taillie served as one of the three Ts (Taillie, Trull and Tustison) who lead the community. Their leadership during that time realigned staff responsibilities and created a sense of cohesiveness. Director Taillie's contribution to SCOV is far reaching and is valued and appreciated.
Lou Gard to fill vacant director position. Following the resignation of Director Steve Taillie, by affirmative vote, the Board approved Lou Gard to fulfill the remaining term of Director Taillie. The remaining term goes through April 2018. (Bylaws 5.12.a)

Getting to know the GM: I started driving in Idaho at the age of 14. I would drive my grandfather's funeral coach/ambulance for emergencies while my grandfather was in the back with a patient. In Idaho in those days we started to drive with a license during the day at the age of 14. Night driving was not until you reached the age of 16.
