Physical Property Manager Kevin Black will speak

SUNSHINE CLUB

Physical Property Manager Kevin Black will be the Sunshine Club’s guest speaker on Friday, July 8, in Clubhouse 3, Room 2, at 10 a.m. Black will help residents to understand his role in the community as well as the Physical Property Department. The Physical Property Department handles a variety of issues pertaining to code compliance, permits and safety concerns. As Physical Property Manager, Black oversees all of the department inspectors. Department staff duties include being involved in all building processes, whether new construction or repairs, for both interiors and exteriors. The department oversees the processing of all building permits, preparing specifications, assist processing bid packets and contracts for special Mutual projects as well as GRF projects.

Black will also talk about his experience in LW in assisting and being involved in many main projects. He currently holds an ICC California Building Inspector License and a C-36 Plumbing License issued by the California Licensing State Board.

Black’s hobbies include ice hockey, surfing, reading and playing with Noah, his 17 years old son. He has been with the GRF for 28 years. He started as a plumber in the Service Maintenance Department. Although he was one of six plumbers on staff, he was able to assist the team in other maintenance aspects, including electrical, carpentry, concrete and street repair.

In 2003 there was an opportunity for advancement in the Physical Property Department which he applied for, and he was promoted to Physical Property inspector. As a Physical Property Inspector, he was able to further assist the community and residents of Leisure World.

The Sunshine Club has frequent guest speakers from the GRF as well as outside organizations so LWers can become more familiar with their community.
