NOTEWORTHY NEWS AND NOTICES

FITNESS ACTIVITY CENTER FACILITY VOTE WATCH YOUR MAILBOXES. Wednesday, 2/28 the ballots to approve moving forward with the financing package for the construction of the new Fitness Activity Center Facility were mailed. It will be built on the vacant lot North of our Administration Center. The ballot will contain the details of the financing and the building’s final design.

We ask for your support and urge you to vote to APPROVE the financing of this major enhancement to our Community – one that will give us and our future members a bright, well-equipped facility with the proper space for a broad range of fitness disciplines, one that we can be proud of, and one that meets our standards and the expectations of new homeowners.

The FAC Committee

TIMING OF EVENTS On Friday, March 23, the results of the Fitness Activity Center vote will be reported by the Election Committee and publicized in The Flyer and on our website. Voting Day Wednesday, March 21 - Homeowner Services 4:00-5:00pm Cut-off Date for Receiving Ballots Wednesday, March 21 -- 5:00pm Ballot Counting Day Thursday, March 22 -- Palo Verde 8:30am Annual Meeting Wednesday, March 28 -- San Tan Ballroom 4:00pm (New Members take office)

SPRING BREAK IS HERE I realize that we all want to show our grandkids a good time when they come to visit during spring break. Please be aware there are dangers in our neighborhood. One of the biggest dangers we have on our roads is inexperienced golf cart drivers.

Board Policy 6-03, V. Vehicles reads: All motorized vehicles, including golf carts, shall be licensed; shall be operated by licensed operators in accordance with the laws of the State of Arizona.

Please be aware of this danger. Some of our drivers do not have the reaction time they used to. An inexperienced (unlicensed driver) probably has zero reaction time. This is a formula for disaster.

Please, do not let your unlicensed grandchildren drive golf carts anywhere in our neighborhood. Dick Gothier, Security Patrol Manager, Cottonwood Palo Verde

SPEEDING CONTINUES TO BE A PROBLEM Speeding continues to be an alarming issue in our community. The electronic Speed-minder records specific data and monitors all vehicles and golf cart activity throughout Cottonwood Palo Verde. Please remember, the speed limit in our community is 25 MPH.

Also remember, it's Spring Break. We have many guests and families who come to Sun Lakes to visit their parents, friends, etc. They left their homes where it is 10 degrees with 12 inches of snow on the ground. They will be walking and biking on our streets to enjoy the weather. When backing out of your driveways be sure to watch for pedestrians and golf carts. Please help keep them safe.

Please slow down and respect your fellow homeowners. Dick Gothier, Security Patrol Manager, Cottonwood Palo Verde

THINKING OF BEING ON A COMMITTEE?

CURRENT COMMITTEE OPENINGS:

AUDIT & FINANCE The purpose of the Audit and Finance Committee is to review and audit the financial operations of the Homeowner Association of Cottonwood Palo Verde at Sun Lakes and to perform other tasks as required by the Board of Directors.

A&F is an advisory committee established to assist the Board in its oversight responsibilities concerning audit, compliance and the implementation of the financial reporting systems.

A&F is composed of seven members who review the monthly financial statement, provide financial forecasts to the Board and Management and conduct special studies and audits at the request of the Board. The committee meets on the first Thursday of each month at 3:00pm in the Phoenix Room unless otherwise posted. Join us. WE WATCH OUR MONEY!

FACILITIES & GROUNDS The Facilities & Grounds Committee meets monthly to assist the Board and CWPV Management with projects brought forth by the Board/Management Long Range Planning Team (B/M LRPT). The Committee is directly responsible to the B/M LRPT. The Committee will also solicit and be responsive to suggestions and recommendations of individual CWPV HOA Members, Management, all other HOA Committees and groups.

The Facilities & Grounds Committee is a standing committee consisting of seven (7) members. Meetings are normally held on the first Tuesday of each month at 10:00AM in the Phoenix Room. We seek your involvement in the future of your community. Please fill out an application at the Administration Office and become part of the future of Cottonwood Palo Verde at Sun Lakes.

SAFETY, SECURITY & ACCESS COMMITTEE (SSAC) The SSAC’s purpose is to serve as the eyes & ears of the residents by defining safety concerns and providing recommendations to Management and the Board of Directors. Some examples include: monitoring the Speed Minders; promoting use of smoke detectors & fire extinguishers; improving visibility of golf carts & cart crossings; advising homeowners on preparing their homes when they’re away on vacation or extended leave; working with Maricopa County Sheriff’s Department to develop a more “visual presence” in our community & developing a safety program for residents who walk our streets at dusk and/or dawn.

Members come from all walks of life: former and/or retired police officers, fire fighters, insurance employees, military, attorneys, health care, customer service, etc. Our only real requirement is to truly care about the well-being of our community. Pick up an application and join us or attend one of our meetings and share your ideas.
