Garbage pickup that was interrupted last week should resume normally this Friday (1/7). If you have additional garbage, you can leave the extra bags with your normal trash and SSC will collect it at no additional cost.
Please do not come down to Area Z to dump garbage during an active snow event as this could create unsafe conditions for snow removal crews and residents.

SVCA is waving late fees and interest for December dues payments to allow for all those who are unable to remit their payments because of the inclement weather and snowy driving conditions. The computation of late fees and interest will resume for the January 2022 dues billings.
The Administration offices will be closed Wednesday 12/29 due to the weather. Staff will be working remotely and can be reached at 360-734-6430.
Sudden Valley crews are currently working hard to clear roadways of snow and ice, but we are encountering issues with fallen trees as well. If you encounter a fallen tree or tree debris obstructing a roadway, please call Security Dispatch at 360-715-2449 to report the situation. Thank you.
Currently, many of Sudden Valley’s roads are hard-packed snow and ice, resulting in treacherous diving conditions. SVCA’s Snow Crew will be back out tomorrow, but the low temperatures will continue to impact driving conditions through the New Year.
Residents are encouraged to stay off the roads, if possible, due to poor road conditions. Vehicles blocking the plows or emergency services can have a devastating impact. If you must abandon your car, please notify Security at 360-603-6136 and give your contact info, the location of the vehicle, along with the make and model.
Finally, the Administration offices will be closed Tuesday 12/28 due to the weather. Staff will be working remotely and can be reached at 360-734-6430.
