If you missed the May 28 2026 Board of Directors meeting, here are the highlights of the Manager’s Report. The next Board of Directors meeting is scheduled for June 25, 2026.
Fiber Optic Installation
Currently there are four fiber optic companies—Wyyerd, Ripple, Forged Fiber 37 for Lumen (CenturyLink), and Quantum Fiber Home Internet—that have shown interest in installing fiber optics in the Rancho Vistoso community. Residents experiencing installation problems with any of these companies should contact the provider directly.
Reserve Study
Association Reserves has completed the site inspection for VCA and Siena assets. The study is expected to be available for review next month. This report will assist the association in providing a multi-year funding plan to fully fund reserves and in the development of the 2027 budget.
2025 Audit
Butler Hansen, a certified public accounting firm, has been selected by the Board to conduct the 2025 audit for the association. The draft report is expected to be available next month.
2026 Capital Projects
The following capital projects have been slated and budgeted for 2026:
• Refurbish entryway monuments at RVB & Oracle Rd.
• Irrigation repairs on Maspalomas, Hidden Springs, and Woodburne Dr. from RVB to Wildlife Ridge Park, as well as the park. The Board selected AAA Landscape for this project ($203,041). A pre-construction meeting took place with the contractor on May 15, 2026. The association is waiting on the contractor’s schedule start date.

• Playground equipment replacement at Monticello and Hohokam Parks. Proposals will be reviewed by the Board at the May 28 meeting.
