EXPERIENCE Some notable projects that Mr. Sumner was involved with while at Beazer Homes include the following: Westpark, ap-proximately 2200 units in Buckeye, AZ. The scope of this project included obtain-ing final plats and engineering plans for multiple phases of the development. Mr. Sumner worked closely with the seller and other consultants to create a water-service area, design and obtain approvals on a wa-ter campus and several remote well sites. Additional coordination was also needed on the CFD, Regional Sewer Solution, ADOT collector road system, offsite water lines and regional park site.

Mr. Sumner was also a regular participant in the regional sewer and water solutions for Goodyear, Surprise (SPA 2), and Buckeye (Sewer Interceptor Line and WWTP expansion). While at Beazer Homes, Mr. Sumner organized an internship program through Arizona State University which enabled Housing students to obtain first-hand knowledge of the Land Development industry while still in school. Participants of this program ultimately earned tuition scholarships and employment opportunities within the industry.

Mr. Sumner’s land development experi-ence prior to his tenure at Beazer Homes included a role as Forward Planner for KB Home. In this capacity, Mr. Sumner was intimately involved in the Due Diligence and Entitlement Management of projects throughout the valley. During this time Mr. Sumner would perform Due Diligence and feasibility analysis on potential projects to identify significant costs or risks prior to obtaining corporate approval. Mr. Sumner was actively involved in the reviewing and awarding of design contracts and supervis-ing the team of consultants on multiple

projects. While in this role, Mr. Sumner paid close attention to detail and became very familiar with the entitlement and product approval processes. In addition to managing projects through the entitle-ment phase, Mr. Sumner was responsible for coordinating the lot fit analysis for all projects, and for a while, obtaining design review approvals for the Architectural Product.
