I manage the website for our development -- Marlborough Mesa -- thru neighborhoodlink.com. My husband and I purchased our home new 21 years ago and have always worked to assure that our neighborhood remains a very desirable one even thought we are not an Association. We have always been very involved w/city and community. We currently do not have signs to identify our development name at our entrances and I am searching out possible grants for that specific item. If you have input, I would appreciate that.
