Today is Sunday March 9, 2025
Welcome
Sabino Vista Townhouse is an exceptional place to call home and on behalf of our Board of Directors, welcome to your Sabino Vista Townhouse Community website.
All of us associated with the Board, and we know we are not alone, love Tucson and the wondrous nature which surrounds it and our community. Those details were key as we designed the website to provide you with helpful information to assist you as best as possible to enjoy our community.
2025 brings a few changes to the HOA Board: Joanna stepped down as President and we are grateful to her for the great job she did tackling all the changes 2024 required. Marco also stepped down, and we likewise thank him for his contributions. Most important, Tim has accepted the role of President and after a great finish to the Wolverine season, we expect he will continue the Michigan tradition of going all out!
The board continues to be focused on making our community better, planning for our future by tackling new challenges and fostering an environment of neighborly friendship.
1) Saturday, April 5, 7-9PM Movie Night!
Did you know “Lilies of the Field” was filmed on this site in the early 60’s and featured Sidney Poitier as Homer, an ex-GI? In 2020, the Library of Congress selected this film for preservation in the United States National Film Registry!
All the 411, as you dream of “driving the 101 on a California night”[1] is in on our
Social Committe Page!
2) SOUTHWEST GAS SAFETY
Do you know the signs of a gas leak? Southwest Gas has shared with us some great tips.
3) COMMUNITY INSURANCE for 2025
Please take a moment to look at the updated Community Insurance Documents. It’s information you should be familiar with and may impact your homeowner’s insurance.
4) REMINDER: 2025 Assessments
The 2025 annual assessment rate is set to $3,156.00 yearly per member, applicable to all homeowner lots, and will be billed monthly at $263.00 starting January 1, 2025 (will appear by January 9 for direct billing).
A Master Gardner in our midst
Plants. We see then every day, but do we? Sometimes it takes a friend to help you “see” things and in our case, Maryann Albano is that friend and our neighbor.
As a Master Gardner, Maryann volunteers her time and experience at many local groups: The UA Cooperative Extension and the Tucson Orchid Society to name a few.
It was recently at the Orchid Society’s Annual Orchid Show and Sale (held March 1 and 2, 2025 at the Mesquite Valley Growers Nursery), where along with her fellow members, Maryann had the opportunity to help people “see” plants (orchids). But don’t take my word for it, let the orchids show you. Thank you, Maryann, for helping us “see” the plants and congratulations!
LAURELS!
2025 is off to a great start thanks to our Social Committee and our fabulous, fantastic, hardly ever contrarian homeowners and residents (silent cheers and applause can be heard coming from your monitor)!
Thus far four (that’s uno mas que cuatro) events:
Fiesta Night
Walking Path
Pizza Hour
Chili Cookoff

We do as little as possible, as infrequently as possible and as rarely as possible. This allows us to look good when we do anything! Thank you, Dusty!!!
