I was an original owner moving in the neighborhood in 2005. I care about this community and want to help get our property values where they should be. I am a level headed, down to earth guy who is easy to talk to.

Having a great community is what we all want. It really does take a village to keep it going, so as a ‘villager’ I am seeking to volunteer and contribute my time and skills to this ongoing effort.
As a homeowner and resident since 2010, I have been an active member of the SBV community, attending almost every meeting, as well as actively participating in the Social Committee since 2011. A large part of my participation is managing our email distribution list for the Social Committee (sbvsocial@gmail.com) pertaining strictly to Social Committee activities such as the Yard Sale, Block Party, etc.
I’ve been a project manager and virtual services manager, as well as a trainer working in the eLearning and Virtual Services industry for 25 years. I love working with people, and the satisfaction of meeting and exceeding expectations.
I am proud of our community and the neighborly ties we share – even when there are disagreements, neighbors look out for neighbors in SBV.
My reason for putting my name in the hat to volunteer/serve on the SBV Board is simply to do my part to keep our community growing in the right direction, to see property values rise, and to provide support to the community. I believe that to truly do these things requires good listening, transparency, solid communication. Oh, and safety first :-).
Feel free to contact me at joann.sbv@gmail.com . Happy to discuss any concerns related to the community.

For six years I have served on the SBV Board of Directors, and I love this community. As a Realtor for 20+ years I have the opportunity to visit many developments like SBV and see how our community compares. My work has given me a broad-based education in operations, rules, monthly fees etc. which helps me serve you in my role on our board.
As a Realtor, I know your home is one of the largest investments you will make and preserving its value is very important. People choose our community because we have an appearance that appeals to them and because we keep our monthly fees reasonable.
My primary accomplishments while serving on the board have been to maintain the quality of SBV and control expenses which directly impacts your monthly fees. Over the years I have made myself available to members of our community when they have issues that concern them and have helped them get a prompt resolution.
I would like to continue to serve as your representative on the Board of Directors of the Sunnybrook Village Community Association to help maintain the community and preserve properly value.
I will continue to work hard to maintain our standards, which preserves your property values, and CONTROL EXPENSES.
