NEW MONTHLY NEWSLETTER!
Beginning in April 2010, our community has been fortunate to
have a private company create and distribute Sunset Canyon newsletters FREE on a
monthly basis. The folks at Peel, Inc. now produce our monthly
newsletter. Peel derives their reimbursement for production and
mailing costs by selling advertising space in the newsletter. The more ad
space used, the larger the newsletter, with more pages for community
content. Therefore, residents are encouraged to support the newsletter
advertisers. To advertise in the newsletter, contact John Peel at 888
687-6444.
Our newsletter editor, John Hoag, is eager to receive submissions for inclusion
in the newsletter. The deadline for submissions is the 10th of the month
prior to publication date. You may submit articles to John
for the next newsletter by clicking here (Please.. all submissions in WORD
or email text format.. not PDF).

If for some reason you prefer to NOT receive the mailed monthly newsletter, or
would prefer to receive it via email, you may choose that option by visiting the
online subscriptions section of the publisher's website.
ATTORNEY OPINION LETTER
A special membership meeting held on May 4, 2010, authorized the board of directors to obtain the services of an attorney for an opinion of the legal status of our association. Attorney Patrice Arnold was retained for that legal opinion. You may read her letter by clicking here.
MEMBERSHIP DUES
Annual membership dues of $35 are due January 1 for 2010.
Your financial support is vital to the effective operation of our
association.
You may now also pay
your annual dues online using Paypal just click on the
logo for instant payment
Did you know that if your lot is one of the "Nassour Lots" (Click here to check your lot by street address), membership and dues payment is mandatory according to your deed. Delinquent dues for these lots can be recorded as a lien against the property, and cause issues when the property is sold.
Our association has the lowest dues of any other HOA in this area. Paying your minimum dues each year along with your neighbor will help us continue to keep the dues low.
PLEASE! Join our SCLA Online Community Group!
The Google-based SCLA community group forum is our primary means of communicating with SCLA residents. Sign up, and you'll receive an email automatically anytime one of our residents posts an issue there. This is the best means we have to provide inexpensive and current communications amongst ourselves.
Issues of concern may be posted here, for consideration and action by the board of directors. Additionally, post any other information, such as garage sales, lost/found pets, request for servicemen recommendations, etc.
To join the group, just enter your email in the Google groups box in the upper left hand panel. In order to join this group, you will need to have a Google user name and password. This is a simple, secure, private, and free one-time process that takes just a minute.
The effective operation of our association depends heavily on being able to communicate quickly to all members. Please assist the board in this endeavor by joining and participating in the SCLA group.
BUILDING PERMITS
Are you aware that every lot in the Sunset Canyon community has
building restrictions defined right in the deed? Although the deed
restrictions vary slightly among the 5 different phases of Sunset Canyon
development, all deeds DO require adherence to a set of basic
covenants.
Before building a new building, or adding outbuildings to a property, a permit
is required from the association to confirm that the proposed addition meets the
basic requirements of the deed restrictions.
For details on restrictions that apply to our association, or specifics on how
to obtain a building permit, CLICK HERE, or select
the PERMITS menu item in the Header.
