Update on Flood Response

Engineers from various disciplines have begun assessing damage from the recent storm event. Over the next week, all SVCA bridges will be evaluated, as well as numerous culverts, ravines, and roads. Additionally, there are several locations where creeks have caused extensive erosion, creeks in two locations have created new channels.

Administration Phone Network

The Association’s network went down early Monday, including the website and phone system. The website is now back up, however the phone system is still not functional. We hope to have this resolved by Friday. Meanwhile, you can contact admin staff directly by emailing:

Additional Information

If you believe you have received damage to your home during the recent weather event, check for any visible structural damage, such as warping, loosened or cracked foundation elements, cracks, and holes; contact utility companies if you suspect damage to water, gas, electric, and sewer lines. Please contact your insurance agent, and document your damage with photos and videos.

In the event water entered your home, begin cleanup and documentation immediately to prevent the growth and spread of mold.

We will update the community as more information becomes available.

The Administrative Office will be closed today due to inclement weather. We apologize for the inconvenience but look forward to serving you. If you have an emergency situation, please dial 911. If it's regarding an administration question, please email administrative staff at jessica.bartelds@suddenvalley.com. We appreciate your patience while we work through this trying time together. Thanks in advance.

Board Directors | SVCA


    

Due to staff illness, the Administrative Office window is closed today. Staff can still be reached over the phone at 360-734-6430.

The Board of Directors, with the support of the GM Transition Committee and Novak Consulting Group, has begun recruiting for the General Manager position at the Sudden Valley Community Association. The first review of applicants will be on October 11, 2021, with interviews of qualified candidates to begin shortly thereafter. The Board appreciates the feedback we received from the survey that was done in coordination with Novak, and we will consider that feedback in our selection of a candidate. The recruitment brochure for the General Manager position is located HERE.

The Board is excited at the opportunity to bring in a highly skilled, qualified, and motivated individual to lead our Association. The GM Transition Committee has spent the last several months working with our Management Team to ensure we have created a collaborative organizational structure to bring in this key leadership role. We recognize that our department managers are the backbone of our organization, and they provide the stability needed to deliver consistent services to our community.  We expect the new General Manager to come in and support our existing Management Team and work to ensure a smooth transition into their new role.

We will provide additional information to the community as we move through the interview process as it becomes available.
