Ellen Bachman

CCOC, LSC

In 2008, I retired as a partner in the law firm of K&L Gates LLP and moved from Portland, Oregon to Sun City Summerlin.  My parents have lived in Sun City since 1994, and I have owned a home here since 1994. Therefore, I have been familiar with our wonderful community and its great amenities even before I relocated, full time, to Sun City.  I strongly believe in the importance of contributing to the community in which I live. 

I was elected to the Sun City Board of Directors in 2010 and am currently chair of the CCOC. I am an active member of the Legal Services Committee.  I serve the Security Patrol as a dispatcher   I was appointed by the Sun City Board to Templeton Gaming Lease Task Force, and we successfully achieved an extension of our existing gaming lease with Templeton Gaming.   I  also am a member of the board  and treasurer of the Arbuckle Drive Homeowners Association.
