General Information (homepage button)
History
Corona del Sol Estates was established 1978 when the first custom and semi-custom homes were constructed and now consists of 199 homes or lots. Properties of 1/3 to 1/2 acre can be found with unique side setbacks of 15 feet or more. Homes range from 2,790 square feet to ~4,000 square feet and sell for between $400,000 and $850,000.
The Corona del Sol Estates Neighborhood Association CDSENA was established in 1998 by Karen Mulford and is dedicated to the promotion of positive partnerships between neighbors, surrounding neighborhoods, and the City of Tempe as well as the collaborative effort to keep the neighborhood esthetically updated and in good repair. It formally registered with the Arizona Corporation Commission as a Limited Liability Company (LLC) in 2007.

Committee Updates (homepage button)
Neighborhood Enhancement Committee
EXTREME MAKEOVER! 2007 (direct link from homepage for now?)
The Extreme Makeover! Committee is being co-chaired by:
Mary Anne Kuhn: makuhn@cox.net
Dean Nyhart: pdnyhart@juno.com
In April 2007 the Extreme Makeover! Committee was established to update the perimeter walls, signs and landscaping of our neighborhood. This effort, scheduled to be completed in August, will require financial commitments, in-kind contributions, and volunteer efforts from each of our homeowners.
THE ISSUES:
• Textured stucco shows dirt
• Stucco is pealing away from the wall and sign
• Words are hard to read even during the day
• Brick needs to be power washed
• Many sections of wall and some signs need to be replaced due to irreparable damage
• Planters are poorly constructed and plants can’t be easily maintained
• Only one sign is lit up but all 6 need to be
• Much of the landscaping needed to be removed and/or replaced
THE DESIGN PLANS: (Neighborhood Enhancement Committee button)
(Mary Anne will give me this content?)
THE PROCESS: (Neighborhood Enhancement Committee button)
(This is directly from the newsletter)
Phase I – Design
Under the leadership of Mary Anne Kuhn, we have hired Creative Environments to create the biddable design for walls, signs, and landscaping. Mary Anne is donating her time to work on the design for new signs. We’re thinking:
• Keep/enhance/power wash the brick as it is consistent with our architecture
• Put the majority of the funds into redesigning the signs – new wall, metal letters, lit up, no planters
• Place a layer of brick on top of existing wall for esthetic purposes
• Replace stucco with smooth surface
• Repaint with an updated color to complement the brick
Phase II – Wall Construction Plan
Dan Croyle and Steve Amelotte from the City of Tempe are working together with the neighbors who own property along Warner and McClintock to remove/replace damaged walls and take out the roots causing the cracks. They will also remove and rebuild signage walls to prepare for new signs. Creative Designs (or another licensed contractor) will then restucco the entire perimeter and signage walls with a smooth surface and paint with a color to be chosen by the committee with neighborhood input.
Phase III – Sign Design and Construction
Sign designs will be reviewed and chosen by the committee with neighborhood input. Construction will begin when design if finalized. We’re thinking:
• Metal letters that can be repainted, revised, replaced over time as needed without disturbing the wall
• Arched signage wall to reflect our name “crown of the sun”
• Enhanced pillars as funds are available
• Lighting of signs is priority but dependant on funds
Phase IV - Landscaping
65 plants were removed during the excavation and will be replaced by the City of Tempe. Additional plants will be added as funds are available in accordance with the design plans from Creative Environments and City of Tempe specifications. Tempe is also providing granite that will be spread across all landscaped areas.
THE COST: (Neighborhood Enhancement Committee button)
We are asking all 199 homes in our neighborhood to contribute between $500 and $1000 toward this effort.
We estimate the cost to be approximately $100,000 based on the work of other neighborhoods. A bank account has been opened at Bank of America and will remain open as long as the CDSENA, LLC exists. This will allow us to keep any additional funds raised to support future projects as they arise.
