Tales of Living in a Senior Community

For those of you who can actually "make it" to Late Night TV, Jimmy Kimmel...


....has an "Aunt Chippy" whom he adores.


She's ..a widow living in a senior retirement community...right here in Las Vegas.

...and loves her Ceramics Class.
That is...

....until Jimmy sent "Gene Prescott III" to join the class.


And so...."Aunt Chippy" welcomed the newest member to her class.....



...and it reminded me of the wonderful community we all live in !

Resident HOA Expert Expounds on Original "Amenity" Article

 Due to the overwhelming number of emails we received regarding the article entitled "What is an Amenity?" we contacted the author of the editorial, Tim Stebbins, to clarify a few of his comments.

Mr. Stebbins graciously accepted our invitation, and has written this 
follow-up to that article.

More on Amenities and the Restaurant 




The Sun City Anthem Public Offering Statement guarantees and promises all home owners in our community the following:

The right to use the recreational facilities described herein is limited to members in good standing and their guests. Homeowners who do not reside in the community with an age-qualified resident do not have the right to utilize the recreational facilities.”

It goes on to list the recreational facilities (amenities).

That list includes the restaurant and bar.

Thus the restaurant and bar are for us homeowners only and are not to be available to the public at large for dining or catering events.

So far our boards of directors have chosen to ignore or reject the portions of the Public Offering Statement pertaining to the restaurant and bar.

Nevada law requires the developer to provide the Public Offering Statement to all buyers and to include all amenities or planned amenities as well as the use rights by homeowners.

Nevada law goes on to say this is a form of express warranty or implied warranty.

Those warranty and promise obligations apply not only to the initial buyer but “run with the propertyand are fully transferred to all future buyers.

Nevada law also states warranties may only beexcluded or modified by agreement of the parties”.

So unless you agreed, or a majority of SCA unit owners agreed, to forfeit the members only exclusive right to use the restaurant and bar, the board of directors alone does not have the authority to deny or deprive you of the promises and guarantees in the Public Offering Statement.

I am not aware of any such agreement by previous and new SCA homeowners to forfeit the rights, promises and warranties contained in the Public Offering Statement.

Anthem Opinions Commentary

This follow-up editorial deserves a clarification from our board of directors. 

Let us fully stress....

Anthem Opinions is NOT being accusatory in any way; this is NOT a witch hunt; and, we wish to be fair in EVERY way; however, the supposed use of resident dues contributions, subjecting the financial well-being of our community to unnecessary real estate taxation, by violating the Public Offering Statement, deserves a proper explanation.

We urge you to write each member of our board to clarify this matter, specifically asking what legal justification they have to apparently ignore the terms of the Public Offering Statement

If you receive a response stating it does not apply, ASK WHY it does not apply.

Here are the email addresses of the various Sun City Anthem board members. 

All you need do, is click on the respective email address, and the email to that board member should appear on your computer screen.

Jean Capillupo...Pres.   jean.capillupo@scacai.com

James Mayfield...V.P.   james.mayfield@scacai.com

Bella Meese...V.P.         bella.meese@scacai.com

James Long...Sec.        james.long@scacai.com

Tom Nissen...Treas.     tom.nissen@scacai.com

Michael Carey               michael.carey@scacai.com

Donald Schramski        don.schramski@scacai.com

We will GLADLY publish ANY board response directly sent to Anthem Opinions at www.scaopinions.com.

In addition, we will also "suspend" our "anonymous" policy in this particular case, and publish ANY board member responses made to residents that our readers wish to forward to us.

We would also like to know if any of our readers send queries to the board members, and do NOT receive any response.

Anthem Opinions strongly believes....

Accountability is not a desire; it is a RIGHT !
