FIREWORKS
Reminder to be respectful, smart and maintain safety during 4th of July celebrations in the community. Arizona and our community is extremely dry, properties have tall trees and vegetation including horse’s other livestock, dogs, cats, birds, and other animals. Fireworks can cause fires and extreme stress on animals. Please consider going to a public display of fireworks rather than hosting your own.

It is mosquito time, please ensure your property lots are draining and do not have standing water for longer than 72 hours, keep your grass cut and free of leaves and debris if you participate in irrigation service.
Please take the time to review the back of your property and clear tall grass, weeds, and overhanging tree limbs. Every property owner is responsible for maintaining their area of the bridle path at the rear of their property.

SBFE USPS Mail Delivery Situation
Beginning last week, we were notified by several property owners that their Sunburst Farms East, Inc. payment that was mailed to our location – Sunburst Farms East 13634 N. 52nd. Street, Scottsdale, AZ 85254 either by the property owner or through their bank were returned stating that the location is not accepting mail and no forwarding address.
We have been in communication with USPS about this error, and our postal person is aware of the situation and has been delivering mail since last week to the mailbox when we confirmed the error.
It appears that this situation is isolated to payments sent after May 22nd-23, so we believe this issue began after that and was caught on May 29th and USPS was notified and the situation corrected.
If you received your payment back, please, drop it personally in the mailbox at the wellsite. If you were notified that your auto bank payment was returned to the bank, you will need to either call or go to your bank to request the check to be sent back to SBFE – the bank will not automatically resend the payment out.
Please contact admin@sbfehome.com or call the office at 602-996-5796 if you have received a return check so we can note your account that your original payment was returned so we have tracking for USPS. If you are placing your check in the mailbox, please staple the returned envelope to your payment.
Thank you,
SBFE BOD
Posted 5/1/2025 Special Meeting notice sent to property owners via USPS, relating to the election of BOD for SBFE – please see link
Posted 4/23/2025 Special Meeting Canceled until May 19, 2025. Email also sent to the community pertaining to below
The Board of Directors held SBFE Annual meeting on April 21, 2025. Thank you to the homeowners that were there, we had a nice turnout.
Quorum to facilitate the election of board members was not met. Ballots were verified for count only and no tally by individual candidate was completed or announced by the President since there was no quorum. The President proceeded into information about the wellsite electrical upgrades and other things happening in the community. (please refer to the minutes on the website which will be posted once approved)
A Special Meeting was called for by the President for Thursday April 24 to elected board members using the ballot referencing nominees. The notice was posted on the SBFE website following the meeting; however, this meeting has been postponed until May 19, 2025, allowing for a community mailer to be sent out via USPS. This information will also be posted on the community website, please refer to our community website often for essential information about the community as noted in prior communication to the community.
Cordially,
SBFE Board of Directors
Posted April 21, 2025
To clarify the process for validating the BOD ballots for SBFE for the Annual meeting held April 21, 2025 and announce a Special Meeting of the BOD to elect new board members. Link below for meeting notice for April 24, 2025.
Ballots that were received on Friday April 18, 2025, were counted by Laura Rothsching (long time property owner) and Desiree Marciniak Secretary for ballot count only on Saturday April 19, 2025, in addition to the ballots received at the Annual meeting April 21, 2025. Note: Following the ballot count on Saturday, Laura took the ballots into her possession and secured them until the night of the annual meeting. These ballots were added to the additional ballots received at the annual meeting. If SBFE received a quorum of ballots at the annual meeting the process would have continued with Laura and another property owner tallying the ballot elections by nominee and submitting results to Desiree as Secretary to give to the President to announce. Since Desiree was on the ballot, she could only verify quorum not elections. Since there was no quorum of ballots there was no tally of ballots per nominee at the annual meeting. A total of 54 ballots were received and quorum would have been 84. (32 ballots were counted on Saturday and 22 received at the annual meeting).
The ballots received at the Annual Meeting cannot be used for any future election as they were for the meeting held April 21, 2025, only. The ballots are not a public record since the vote is not valid nor will they be used for the Special meeting on April 23rd when the BOD elects new board members. The ballots will be held in the records in a sealed envelope.
If any property owner has further questions about the vote and process, please contact Desiree at admin@sbfehome.com.
