The Cortina HOA has decided to put together a quarterly newsletter that will accompany the quarterly mailings you receive. In your mailing you will receive a black & white version of the newsletter, but can also download a high-quality version of the newsletter in color here on the website. The document is in PDF format and requires compatible software to read it (i.e., Adobe PDF Reader).
Please read the newsletter as it is filled with valuable information and news, including that Cortina won a prestigious landscape award!
We hope you enjoy the newsletter.

Time for SPRING CLEANING!
This means that any Cortina Residents may hold a garage sale at their home and we will be obtaining a permit to cover the entire community.
We will ONLY have the permit for Saturday, keeping Sunday clear of outside traffic so we can enjoy our neighborhood and common areas safely.
We will advertise the sale in a few different venues including Craig’s List and our community chat groups.
We are currently looking to schedule local p/u by charity organizations for anything that is left after the Garage Sale Day that is not something you want to keep but is worth donating. Stay tuned for more information on that.
If anyone would like to volunteer to make COMMUNITY GARAGE SALE signs for the entrances to Cortina for that day, please feel free to contact Rebecca Atlee who is heading up this event. 480-396-8298.
In our on-going efforts to keep our community beautiful and in good maintenance, we are giving the pool a face lift! The pool will be CLOSED from February 9, 2012 to mid March for resurfacing. On February 9th or 10th, the pool will be drained so you may notice a lot of water on the West and South sides of the Pool. This will dissipate within a couple days and if there are any issues with the grass or landscape, it will be taken care of by our the landscape company.
