Thank You Senator McCain


Mr. Michael Sansone
xxxxx N Paradise Village Pkwy S 
Phoenix, AZ 85032-7626
Dear Mr. Sansone:
Thank you for contacting me to share your views regarding S. 1358, the Parental Bereavement Act of 2011.  I appreciate knowing your thoughts on this issue.
As you may know, S. 1358 would expand the Family and Medical Leave act of 1993 to allow for up to 12 workweeks of unpaid leave due to the death of a son or daughter. This bill was introduced in the Senate on July 13, 2011 and was referred to the Senate Committee on Health, Education, Labor, and Pensions (HELP). As a member of the Senate HELP Committee, please be assured that I will keep your concerns in mind should this legislation be considered in the full Senate.
Thank you for taking the time to share your views.  Please feel free to contact me on this or any other matter of concern.
Sincerely,
John McCain
United States Senator

Thank You !!!!!


Michael,
Again, I am pleased that you are running for the board.  Sorry I was not at the meet and greet because I was not in AZ at the time.  I hope it went well and residents were able to learn what an asset you are to our community. 
Quick question for you.  We received two voicemails at our home in St. Paul from Sharon in the Anasazi management office.  Is Roe no longer working at Anasazi?  Is Wayne still there?  If there was a change in management, it would be nice if they let the owners know. 
I really miss your blog because it kept us informed of what was going on at Anasazi.  Even though we are not full time residents, we deeply care about our community and your blog let us know the issues so we could respond accordingly.
Again, thank you for all that you do!

Thank You for Endorsements Anasazi Residents

RESIDENT ENDORSEMENTS........THANK YOU !!
Here are a few I have received


****************************************************
Dear Mr. Sansone

I fully support your platform, we need board members from our condo community, who's interest is 100% our condos, and the people live there.
Lot of us is from Canada, and can't be in the board,but love love love our property and would like to keep it nice and green with a lot of trees and flowers, 
Please clean and replace the trees so we can keep the park atmosfer.

You got my vote

Dear Mr. Sansone,

You have my vote. I agree with you on the need for an Resident-based Board.

As well, although a non-resident, I strongly agree with you on the issue of trees that are cut and not replaced, grass areas replaced with rock material. Trees are an integral part of our property.  When we purchased our property not many years ago, one reason for which we decided to buy was for this community's park-like grounds, with mature trees that provide much-needed shade and filter the air.

Not replacing cut trees causes not only devaluation of our property but decreases the quality of living in Anasazi Village.

I am greatly concerned about this issue. I hope other residents will join you and I in expressing in writing their concerns on the same subject.

Hi Michael

Ralph Avery here.
I see you plan to run for the Board.

As you may remember I tried and could not break thru all the
Politics.
I wish to offer my help to you to maybe break that mold.

I am here to help if you need it.

Based on what I am seeing as it relates to the entire insurance program
The Board has decided to use a AAA auto insurance agency
that has no background at all as it relates to an HOA.
The Board has however provided that new agency with letters of authority
Which turns over all my policies to that new agency.
On the bright side ……
That will at least provide the association with the proper insurance.
Providing that agency uses them all and not mickey mouse others.
What a way for the Board to thank me
Wow.
I have never in all my 39 years in this business been treated this way.

Anyway

I am here if you need help

Please let me know

Best
