Utilities should notify homeowners before workers show up

Sun City resident expresses concern over unannounced visits and refusal to show identification

OPINION — Recently, two different men have attempted to access my backyard without notification or identification — either for their company or their own personal ID.

Pictures of the first individual were posted to a Sun City Facebook page by others who encountered him. When we questioned him, he said fiber optic cable is being installed in our neighborhood and he needed access to our backyard to mark existing utility and cable lines.

When we asked him for identification, he replied, “I must have left it in my truck.” When I asked him where the work was happening, he said the company was working on Thunderbird near Camelot Circle but would be coming down our street soon.
