August 15, 2013 Stealing from orphans or old people Most people know that Sunshine Acres get full proceeds from aluminum cans in that green recycle bin. Lately we have had people scooping them cans out and selling them for their own gain. This is theft and they are stealing from orphans. This is as low as you can get on the human scale of scumbags. Please watch our recycle area and take license numbers and descriptions of anyone digging cans from the Sunshine Acres bin. Few things disturb me more than stealing from orphans or old people. These people must be identified and penalized severely. Please observe and report these deadbeats. Tom Finger, Resident January 3, 2013 Funding Campaign for Aquatic/Fitness Center Recently the Homeowners Board of Directors approved the building of a new two story facility for the Aquatic and Fitness Center to be built on the existing footprint. The addition of this new structure will enlarge the fitness area about 5 times and also double the area of the men’s and ladies’ change rooms for the pool. The new center will, as has the new Country Club building, entice new retirees to our community, thus making your property more valuable. But the best part of this venture is the added space for more people to work out, thus adding years to our wonderful life in Apache Wells. The Board of Directors desires not to impose an assessment and stated so at the December Homeowners meeting. However, it was suggested that if every unit in Apache Wells was to donate $360.00 (which would be like a monthly assessment of $30 per month for 12 months) we would be able to pay for the new center without financing a bank loan. The purpose of this short note is to request a donation from you. The amount of $360 is a suggested amount, however, lesser or greater amounts will gladly be accepted. The amount we feel that will be necessary to complete this structure is around $600,000 and to date we have approximately $120,000 in the reserve fund. The timeline for the construction is approximately 5 to 6 months from April 15th, 2013. We can likely be using our new Center by November 2013. Please make your checks payable to AWHOA and return them to the Admin Office in the attached envelope. If you are desirous of more information please contact any of the board members or the following Construction Committee members: Sharon Gordon, Pete Eikren, Babs Bastedo, Hideo Fukushima , Dan Phillips or Jim Bonnell. The architect’s renderings are available to view in the Administration Office.

Carolyn Agee: d.agee58@cox.net March 27, 2012 PROPOSED CC & R'S Section 7.5 Explanation If you have signed and submitted your consent of agreement to the proposed CC & R's, thank you. Your support is appreciated. If you have not done so because you left your packet at your summer home, the Homeowners Office has extra consent forms for your use. You don't need to wait until you arrive at your summer home to sign a consent form. There is no deadline, but we would like to close soon before many people leave. The document has not changed since sent out in June. Some residents are still unclear about Section 7.5 Special Assessments on page 22. If a Special Assessment would be proposed (there are no plans for one now), a minimum of 51% of the ballots cast (yes' and no's) by homeowners entitled to vote, shall constitute a quorum (720). Of those votes cast, 51% must be yes votes (368) to pass a special assessment. A homeowner will vote "yes", "no" or abstain (which does not count as a "no" vote). EXAMPLE: If 1000 total entitled votes were cast, 510 "yes" votes would be required to pass the assessment. If you have questions and need someone to assist you, please contact a Board member who will be glad to meet with you to discuss the issues and answer any questions you have. We urge everyone to take a serious look at the documentation and understand that the CC & R's are for the protection of your property and your ability to defend the value of your investment. They need to be current with the Arizona statutes. May 27, 2010
WHAT: Special Board Meeting May 21, 2010 SCAM ALERT An AW resident received a phone call yesterday from a man with an Asian or East Indian accent stating that he discovered there was a virus on the resident's computer and if he didn't do what the caller said his computer would crash and to turn on his computer so the caller could walk him through the "FIX".

Apache Wells With sadness we inform you of a recent death here in Apache Wells. Connie Nelson, wife of Roy, has passed away. A memorial service will be Tuesday, July 15, 11:00am at Apache Wells Community Church. Please pass this information on to your neighbors who do not have e-mail and may wish to attend the service. For your information: Each year a number of our friends and neighbors at Apache Wells pass away. When this information is received at the Homeowners Office, an obituary is posted on the bulletin board and included in the next issue of the Roundup. The e-mail newsletter list now presents us with another means to communicate this information. Notice of Memorial Services will be sent out whenever possible. Every effort will be made to include all Apache Wells residents who pass away in these notifications; however, we are dependent on this information, and the accuracy of it, to be communicated to the Homeowners Office. Apache Wells Homeowners Association March 1, 2007 The following are excerpts from the Apache Wells Newsletter Issue 65 sent via e-mail.
ELECTION RESULTS:
ADMINISTRATIVE COURT HEARING: The complaint regarding the purchase of the bank building was denied. The Homeowner's board was within their legal authority to make this purchase. The second complaint regarding the transfer fee specifies that the fee be reduced from $950 to $300. This is preliminary information. In accordance with Arizona Law governing this procedure, the decision is not final until it has been reviewed and approved by the Department of Fire, Building and Life Safety.
EMPLOYEE DISRESPECT: Now, with statements made by a resident chairing a meeting last Tuesday, this has reached a level where an apology is demanded or proof of such accusations are required. A person who would make this kind of statement with no proof has questionable credibility.
COMMUNITY LONG RANGE PLANNING COMMITTEE: A new Planning and Development Committee is being appointed by the Homeowner's Board to carry on with all of the work that must be done. Reporting to that committee will be a Construction Committee made up of a number of Apache Wells residents who spent their working years in the large construction business.
DEPARTURE FORMS: If you would like to receive a copy of this newsletter via e-mail, Teri or Enga would be glad to show you how to sign up for this service.
DAVIDSONS RESIGN AS EDITORS E-MAIL NEWSLETTER: When we took this idea to Marv Larson about three years ago, we wanted to help the homeowners in Apache Wells have up to date news, no matter where they were located, sooner than the RoundUp. We sent out the news about the break-ins, storms and the construction related to the installation of the gas and water meters. The past year it has become an editorial paper and not a Newletter. Thanks for letting us bring it to you. Don & Jan Davidson December 12, 2006 Apache Wells Newsletter Issue 61 (sent via e-mail) This newsletter, now in its 61st edition, was started with the intent to inform the residents of Apache Wells of recent board actions, and serve as a reminder of upcoming events. Three hundred plus copies are distributed in five community locations and to some five hundred residents by electronic e-mail. This Newsletter was not intended to be a means to correct misleading information spread by rumors, and gossip. However recent accusations and misleading statements by the SAW group, leaves no other option than to set the record straight. To be accused of mistakes that justify recall (impeachment) of all nine members of the Homeowners Board is one thing. To be accused of dishonesty, malice, and underhanded dealings is quite another thing.
Accusation:
The bylaws provide that the petition for nomination be presented to the Secretary of the Homeowner’s Board. Mr. Walt Stromme’s petition for nomination was delivered to the home of the Homeowners’ Board secretary at 6 PM the evening of Nov. 10 after the office had closed and after the Roundup was sent to the publisher. The other petitions followed on Nov. 11,13, and 14. Mr. Stromme’s name was spelled incorrectly (Sromme) and three of the petitions were dated November 10, 2007. They could have been returned for these errors. They were not. Corrections were made and initialed. On receipt of the petitions the Secretary is required to verify that the signatures are from valid homeowners, only one signature is allowed per lot number. There were signatures that were not eligible(renters) on some petitions; and a resident requested their name be removed from a petition. The petition does not become official until the Secretary’s review is completed, so these petitions did not become effective until well after the closing of the Roundup. This year’s issue of the Roundup is exactly the same as last year’s election issue. Petition and write-in candidates were not included last year either because they too became candidates after the November issue was sent to the publisher. Petition candidates can file until Dec.2 (30 days prior to the election). Due to the availability of the electronic newsletter, the pictures and biographies of all 6 candidates were published after the closing last year. Now that the date to receive petitions has passed and ballots printed, all seven candidates will receive the same electronic publicity this year.

The Apache Wells Homeowners’ Association has no community hall. We enjoy the use of Apache Hall, the restaurant and the bar through the neighborliness of the homeowners who are also golf members. A new larger community center can expand our entertainment and social life and give us facilities that we can use with enjoyment and pride as well as increase the value and attractiveness of our community. Do we build now? Or wait a few more years until the cost goes even higher?

Obituaries November 7, 2006 Last April the Community Long Range Planning Committee asked for input from Homeowners about any aspect of Long Range Planning for our community. This request for comments was mailed to all residents, published in a newsletter, the Roundup and through the email newsletter in an effort to reach all property owners. Out of a potential 1,412 homeowners, 72 responses were received. Of those who indicated they were not in favor of a new building, the concern mentioned most often was the cost for people who are on fixed incomes. Only one or two said it would be a problem for them personally. The CLRP Committee is very aware of this concern and should there be a positive vote to build a new community center, there will be a payment plan for each and every situation and circumstance. Other responders expressed alternatives to building new, such as- fixing up the current buildings, building an exercise facility where the shuffleboards now are and doing nothing with Apache Hall or the Restaurant. And a few said they didn’t use any of the buildings now so they didn’t want anything done to upgrade or build new facilities. The Planning Committee hired professionals to inspect the entire clubhouse facility, and as stated before, these professionals estimate it would cost $5.5 million to renovate the building and bring if up to current electrical, plumbing and American Disability Act codes. Any remodeling requires that the building to meet all current building codes. If only renovating was done, we would still have a building that is not efficient nor would it be large enough- and we wouldn’t have an updated exercise room. So that is why the committee suggests building new so that a community center would include a larger, updated exercise facility, a larger more multi purpose hall, and a restaurant that would be more efficient and usable by large and small groups. To compensate the Country Club for the land transfer, a new larger pro shop would also be built. Many responses didn’t express a view either positive or negative about building new facilities but did have questions about the planning. Questions about how a transfer of land from the Country Club to the Homeowners would work, would the Country Club then have to pay rent to the Homeowners for use of the community center, and concerns about who gets to vote on a building plan. Many wanted to know about the estimated cost of building new and how it would be financed. A couple responses asked about how much their property would increase in value if a new community center were built. As mentioned before- a transfer of land from the Country Club to the Homeowners would be made at fair market value for the land only- land ready to build on. This fair market value would be determined by professional appraisals. Since the Homeowners would own the Community Center, the Country Club and the Homeowners Association would negotiate a rental agreement for use of the hall, just like any other entity. All Homeowners will have an opportunity to vote on the proposal for building a Community Center. The estimated cost of a new building is similar to the cost of renovation. Financing has yet to be finalized. Getting financing is not a problem but the question is whether to finance it through a bank, with private investors or a combination of banks and investors. The finance committee of the Long Range Planning Committee wants to be sure we get the best rate and terms we can. As for the question about how much value would be added to individual homes if a new community center were built- there can be no set dollar amount given- however, we do believe that if nothing is done, the value of our homes is likely to stagnate because the upcoming baby boomers will buy in other communities where the buildings are newer and more completely meet their needs. Many of the responses were very positive for building new facilities- they stated that building new facilities was a great investment for the community and for the homeowners, that we need a hall for concerts, a restaurant and kitchen which meets codes and standards and a larger exercise facility. Questions were also asked from those who were in favor such as will the Homeowners be able to vote on this, how much rent the Country Club would have to pay or who will run the restaurant. Homeowners will vote on this project but many of the details such as fair rental fees or management questions are being researched but are not finalized. Our committee appreciates the people who took the time to respond to the questionnaire and asked questions or made comments. We wish more had responded because our goal has always been to involve as many Homeowners as possible. That was the purpose of the ASU study- to get input from the Homeowners as to what the Homeowners themselves want as facilities and activities. The ASU study was contracted because the Homeowner and Country Club boards believed it was necessary to have a professional study done to address the current and future needs of our community. The CLRP Committee has followed this Homeowner survey as closely as possible so we can to plan for what the majority of Homeowners indicated they want in our community. We want each Homeowner to know the facts about this project and to make an informed vote- not a vote based on hearsay or rumors or outright distortions of the truth. Please stay informed by attending these coffee meetings, reading the newsletters and email newsletters and reading the Roundup. If you have questions that still aren’t adequately answered, feel free to call any Long Range Planning Committee member. We are all willing to answer any question you have. We are planning to hold coffee meetings every other week, which means that the next one will be November 13th at 9AM. On the Mondays that there are no coffee meetings you are welcome to come to the library meeting room also at 9AM for further discussion. Ben Johnson reported on the time line for upcoming events. There will be a coffee meeting every two weeks with the next ones scheduled for Nov. 13 and Nov. 27. The goal is Jan. 15th for the members of the Country Club to vote on proceeding with the proposed sale of the Apache Hall and the adjacent parking area to the Homeowner’s Association. If that vote accepts the proposed plan the Homeowner’s will vote on the purchase of the Country Club property on Jan. 31. During the meeting it was often mentioned that if you have any questions, the CLRP committee meets every Monday morning in the Library meeting room and welcomes inquires from residents at 9 AM. Bob Heaton reported on publicity and indicated the CLRP committee would be glad to attend neighborhood coffee parties to respond to questions. Their goal is to get accurate information to everyone. (A number of people volunteered to be hosts after the meeting) Jim Nobish showed the current plan for the new building which has been downsized from the plan shown last spring. Copies were distributed to those in attendance at the close of the meeting. The new plan proposes a building totaling 27,458 square feet. There will be a covered patio area along the entire North (pool) side of the building.
