The Association has nine standing committees that support the Board of Directors: Architectural Compliance Audit & Finance Communications Election Facilities & Grounds Food & Beverage Golf Recreation/Entertainment Safety, Security & Access
Tenure on committees is limited to two years. If you are finishing your first term on a committee and plan to reapply for a second term, you must complete and turn in a new application.
NOTE: Applicants are encouraged to select more than one committee preference so that they can be considered by multiple committees. Committee meetings are typically held on a monthly basis, although some committees do not meet during the summer months. Current Committee meeting dates, times and locations are posted on the website and in The Flyer. In the following weeks, we will highlight the individual committees in The Flyer.
ARCHITECTURAL COMPLIANCE COMMITTEE (ACC) It is the responsibility of the ACC to meet twice monthly to review and administrate permit applications regarding the alterations of any exterior architecture or landscaping of residences for Cottonwood Palo Verde at Sun Lakes. This objective assures that the aesthetics of the community are preserved, and the intent of the Association's Declaration of Restrictions is not compromised.
The committee consists of nine (9) homeowners, a non-voting Board member designated as Chairperson and a Compliance Officer. The Committee meets on the first and third Tuesday of each month unless posted otherwise.
A report by the Compliance Officer regarding any ACC violations and subsequent action, if necessary, is presented to the ACC at each meeting.
All permit applications submitted to the committee by the Architectural Administrative Assistant are reviewed by the committee members. When an application has been approved, the member assigned to that area reports on the progress through completion.
As an ACC member, you will have the opportunity to become part of this very important process. We invite you to consider applying for the ACC.
ADMINISTRATIVE SERVICES Administrative Services are available by APPOINTMENT ONLY:

PALO VERDE DINING ROOM & LOUNGE DRESS CODE (Board Policy 8-06)
Dress attire that is appropriate for a Country Club community is required for all Cottonwood Palo Verde facilities and amenities. A clean and neat appearance is expected.
The dress code applies to all Sun Lakes Homeowners, Guests, Visitors, Renters and children over the age of 12.
NOT ALLOWED Attire for the Palo Verde Dining Room / Lounge:
Palo Verde Dining Room:
Denim wear with holes or frayed
Midriff-exposing tops
Sleeveless shirts and T-shirts for men (children 12 and under may wear t-shirts; men may wear turtlenecks and mock turtlenecks)

SAFETY REMINDERS As we finish our beautiful spring weather and move into the hotter months of summer there are a few reminders to keep in mind for the safety and enjoyment of our summer residents. Five Lakes - Please remember to be courteous as you enjoy
our beautiful lakes.
The paths are walking paths for those who walk for exercise or to walk their dogs.
Golf carts and bicycles must yield to walkers. Most of us are seniors and many cannot move fast enough to get out of the way of moving golf carts/bicycles.
Golf carts must slow down. If you want to go faster please use the streets.
Please do not walk dogs along the fence lines. Walk on the paths or closer to the lakes.
Clean up after your dog(s) unless you have taught them to clean up after themselves.
All dogs and cats must be on a leash at all times, with you on the other end of the leash.
Speed Limit – 25 miles an hour
Our speed limit and streets are enforced by the Maricopa County Sheriff's Office (MCSO). Several residents/guests have been observed driving much too fast. It is only a matter of time until those who drive too fast will have an accident and injure people, animals, or property. Please SLOW DOWN!
Let’s have a safe and happy summer with all we have had to deal with throughout the spring. Be safe, courteous and be sure to share a smile – it is catching!
PALM TREE TRIMMING TIME Palms are typically trimmed in June. The reason we do palms this time of year is because the seed pods grow out and are messy and unsightly. Having your tree trimmed after the seed pods emerge ensures that you get a full year to enjoy a properly trimmed, clean tree. The Compliance Officer will start checking homeowner palm trees starting in July.
