Pool Closed

The Board is sorry to inform you the pool is closed until further notice.

On the night of July 14th there must have been a party in the pool. Wednesday morning beer bottles, NyQuil bottles and whiskey bottles were found all over the pool area. Broken glass was everywhere including inside the pool.

In order to remove 100% of the broken glass from inside the pool, the pool has to be drained. If the pool is drained in the excessive heat we are experiencing, the pool will crack. So, the board has decided to hold off on draining the pool at this time.

I know many of you will ask why cameras haven’t been installed yet- and if they were installed the vandalism wouldn’t have occurred. The board has been investigating the installation of security cameras at the pool. But, placing cameras at the pool won’t stop the vandalism. We need everyone’s help:
  • If you see someone in the pool that’s causing damage demand that they leave or call the police.
  • If you see or hear a party going on in the pool area, demand they leave or call the police.
This is your community. The individuals vandalizing the pool are most likely individuals that do not reside within the community. Don’t let another car tag behind you before the gate closes. Don’t let anyone in the pool area without a key; if they don’t have a key, they shouldn’t be in the pool.

If anyone has any information regarding the vandalism, please call Preferred Communities, the Mesa Police Department or email us info@sunrisehoa.org.

Street / Guest Parking

There seems to be a number of residents and visitors parking on the streets and residents parking in Guest Parking. This is just a reminder parking on the streets is prohibited at all times. Guest Parking is just that, for guests. Under no circumstance should any resident park in Guest Parking. Kwik Tow does frequently visit our community and will tow any vehicle it sees parked on the street. Residents parked in Guest Parking will receive a warning. Continuing to violate this rule will result in your vehicle being towed at your expense.

Solid Waste Management and you!

Arizona and local ordinances require residents to seal garbage that can cause unsanitary conditions and breeding of flies before placing it in the BLACK barrel.

Mesa's Quality Assurance Inspectors find a large number of unsealed or paper garbage bags containing food waste in the black refuse barrels on collection days. Please help maintain the sanitary conditions for a safe environment by bagging and tying your trash.

  • DO place the barrel as close to the curb as possible with the handle of the barrel facing the house.
  • DO bring the barrel in from the curb on the same day it is serviced, or no later than 6:00 a.m. on the day after.
  • DO put wet garbage, grass and animal waste in sealed plastic bags before placing them in the BLACK barrel.
  • DO NOT contaminate BLUE barrel with non-acceptable items. Mesa maintains a "three strike and you're out" policy, which means that if your BLUE barrel is found contaminated three times, City inspectors will remove the barrel.
  • DO NOT place barrel near objects that may prevent collection such as vehicles, light poles, mailboxes, planters, etc.)
  • DO NOT park vehicles near or in front of barrels that are placed out for service.
  • DO NOT overfill barrel. The lid must be closed in order for the container to be serviced.
  • DO NOT place items on the ground around the barrel or on top of the barrel itself.
  • DO NOT use any other containers other than the City provided barrels for garbage, green waste or recyclables.
  • DO NOT put dirt, mortar, concrete, plaster, building materials, toxic or hazardous material, motor oil, or unwrapped animal waste in the barrel.
  • DO NOT put hot ashes, cinders, coals, or any other burning materials in the barrel.
  • DO NOT let children play inside the barrels, or near the collection trucks.
  • DO NOT block the sidewalk preventing free access for pedestrians.

      What about shredded paper?


      Shredded paper is ACCEPTABLE in the blue barrel under the following condition:

      Shredded paper must be bagged and tied in a CLEAR plastic bag. Do not use plastic grocery bags as they are not clear enough for recycling sorters to easily see through them and they will discard them as trash. Residents may purchase these clear plastic bags at an office supply retailer.

      *Please note that this is the only time plastic bags are allowed in the BLUE barrel which are not acceptable under Mesa's recycling program. However, this exception is made to ensure that the shredded paper is properly processed at the recycling facility. When not bagged, the shredded paper is too small for sorting.

      What about plastic bags?


      Plastic bags are not acceptable in the blue barrel for the following reasons:

      Collected material from the BLUE barrel is taken to an independent recycling facility where it is sorted by commodity (i.e.- aluminum, paper, glass, plastic, etc.) Plastic bags can clog the machinery and therefore interfere with the sorting process.

      Many retailers have taken responsible action by providing bins at the front of their stores for their customers to place their plastic grocery bags in. Check with the local retailer to find out if they offer this type of program. If not, ask them to consider doing so.

      If you have any questions about recycling or refuse collection, call the Solid Waste Management Department at (480) 644-2688.
