Hi Neighbors,
We are making great progress in our efforts to protect our golf courses and green spaces, and I want to thank every single one of you who has already stepped up to stand with our community whether by sign your Save SCC Resident Authorization form, donating your time or money, getting informed, or encouraging your neighbors, friends and others to take part. Every single bit helps us and reinforce the work we do on the community’s behalf everyday to protect our green spaces, stormwater management, wildlife, and the character of our community.
To officially register with Hillsborough County Neighborhood Relations as a Certified Neighborhood Organization, we need authorizations from over 50% of our community households. Achieving this status is critical: it gives Save SCC legal standing to represent you at public hearings and in court proceedings, guarantees mandatory early notifications on local zoning and land-use changes, and proves overwhelming community unity to county officials, government entities, and developers.
Where We Stand Today
We are nearly a third of the way to our target, and every new signature gets us closer to the finish line:
-
Households Registered: 1,037 (29.6% of our 3,500-household goal)
-
Total Residents & Owners Signed: 1,303
-
Households Remaining: 2,463
This Resident Authorization Tracker is online at SaveSCC.org any time you want to see how we’re doing.
(Note: Even if you signed a petition or joined our email list in the past, you must submit an official Resident Authorization form so we can establish legal standing with the County. Every resident—whether full-time, part-time, renter, or absentee owner—counts!)

CA “Meet the Candidates” Recap
Thank you to everyone who attended the Community Association “Meet the Candidates” event this past Wednesday at Community Hall. For those who couldn’t make it, here is a key takeaway for our neighborhood: during the forum. When asked the question, all of the candidates indicated that they support protecting our green spaces and oppose residential development, with the sole exception of Julie Porto, who stated that as a current board member she could not comment. Be sure to cast your ballots!
Together, we’re on the fairway to success!
Please be sure to share this information with your friends and neighbors and get them signed up so they can be in the know too!
Warmly,
Ellie Anderson
President, Save SCC, Inc.
