Good afternoon, Sonoma Verde!
We wanted to make you aware of an upcoming change with the bank that Sonoma Verde Association uses to handle all of your assessment payments. We wanted to send you this information as soon as possible to avoid any confusion regarding paying your Association assessments.
Union Bank Merger & Outage
In October, the Association's current bank, Union Bank, is merging with Pacific Western Bank. Starting Friday, October 8th at 8:00 pm ET through October 11th (a banking holiday), Union Bank will go offline, and homeowner payment link services will NOT be available.
Pacific Western Bank anticipates all systems to be restored and fully operational by Tuesday, October 12th at 8:00 am ET and starting that day, you can access Pacific Western Bank.
Following the merge, you can still mail all payments to the PO box on your statement. Owners on direct debit or ACH will have NO IMPACT and will not need to make any changes.
As always, if you would like to drop off your payment in person, you can come to see us at the amenity center and drop off your payment by check or money order. We are here Monday - Friday from 10:00 am until 4:00 pm. You can also bring your assessment payment to the Annual Meeting next Thursday to make it even easier for yourself.
If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to let me know, and I will be happy to help!
Thank you,
Jamie Patterson

"I don't have friends, I got family." - Dominic Toretto, Furious 7.
One of the absolute best things about this job is seeing the smiling faces enjoying our community here in Sonoma Verde. Whether it's an event we're hosting at the Amenity Center, someone playing at the park with their kids, a couple walking their dog along the sidewalk, or a group of families getting together in the evening to sit in their driveways and watch the kids play, it always puts a smile on my face when I see it.
I don't think there's any better example of that than seeing neighbors get together this past Tuesday for National Night Out! The pictures that have been shared with me are a blast to look at, and it was something as simple as getting together with your neighbors, enjoying some good food, and having fun getting to know the folks you live within this beautiful community. |

And if the pictures weren't enough, the feedback from people that enjoyed the party makes it even better!
"It was the first time that #TeamBudino came together to meet everyone on the street. Our street is just under 3 years old and most moved in last Summer. The kids enjoyed their interactions with our local servicemen, and the adults spent time getting to know their neighbors!" - Amy Johnson.
"Thank you to the Ordaz family and many Firenza neighbors contributing to a block party to celebrate National Night Out with Rockwall County Sheriff's Office. McLendon-Chisholm Fire Department made stops throughout the neighborhood visiting neighbors and for kids to see the new engine. The Rockwall County K9 Unit also made an appearance, and we got to meet Luke." - Adrienne Balkum.
"Thank you so much for the party packages. Our street loves getting together!" - Jacqueline Brogan.
Have a great weekend!

If you were a professional race car driver, who would be your main sponsor?
JoAnn Fabric and Craft store, I love to crochet and craft. My husband doesn't like it when I go there because I spend too much money!

Probably either Yeti Coolers or Rainbow Flip Flops. Especially if we're going off of what I have spent the most money on and use the most already...
