Architectural Review Jim Cherry 612-805-5637 ARC@suncityorovalley.com Zoom meetings Second and Fourth Tue., 2 PM
The new Revised Development Standards have been approved by the Board of Directors. Please take a look at the changes that continue making our community high on the list of desirability. Members > Documents > Development Standards. Mountain views obstructed by trees continue to be a major concern with the homeowners in our community.
