FAQ’s for COVID-19 Vaccine
|
|
Why is Family Hospital Systems (FHS) moving to a new location and not giving vaccines in the SCB?
This decision has been made to be able to administer a greater number of vaccinations and better adhere to recommended social distancing guidelines. This new location has not yet been announced, however, FHS currently intends to maintain a presence in north-central Williamson County.
Will FHS return to Sun City Social Center Ballroom (SCB) to administer the second vaccine since I received my first vaccine in the SCB?
At this time we don’t know. We are waiting for FHS to provide us with that answer. As soon as they provide us with the answer then we will communicate it to the community. You will be able to get your second vaccine on your appointment date, the location is still undecided by FHS.
My spouse and I share an email address, I am worried that if we share an email address that after one of us gets an appointment the other one will be deleted from the waitlist?
FHS has confirmed that this is not true. Multiple people can have the same email address and each person will receive their appointment.
What number am I on the waitlist?
That information is managed and maintained by FHS.
What happens to the Sun City waitlist when FHS leaves Sun City?
FHS will combine the waitlists and work off one large waitlist. They have the timestamps of when people signed on the waitlist.

Pedestrian Crossings:
Use the Flashing Beacon for Safety
We've all seen people walk across the street without checking for oncoming traffic or activating the beacon. This is dangerous in many ways as drivers may be facing the sun, experiencing low light at dawn or dusk, possible distractions from wildlife or any number of other issues that may keep drivers from seeing you and reacting quickly. Pedestrians should be aware that even though they have the right of way in a crosswalk, the flashing beacons serve as an alert to drivers. After activation, wait to make sure it is safe to cross. In keeping with our COVID-19 precautions, pedestrians should press the button with something other than their bare hand.
|
|
|
Push a Button: The life you save may be yours
When pedestrians approach one of the crosswalks, they can push a button to activate the flashing lights. The lights will flash for approximately 60 seconds to alert drivers that pedestrians are present. State law requires drivers to stop at a marked crosswalk when pedestrians are present. Vehicles must yield to pedestrians in a marked crosswalk, even when a flashing light is not present or activated.

Wildlife Management
While Sun City is within the city limits of Georgetown, our community is, for the most part, surrounded to the northwest and east by open woodlands and prairies. This means that Sun City is home to abundant wildlife native to these areas. It is the policy of the Community Association that the wildlife living in Sun City is an integral part of our lifestyle. Our goal is for us to live in harmony with our wildlife. Living in harmony means living in balance. Living in balance requires management of some of our wildlife species.
|
|
|
Sun City Texas CC&R states trapping or killing wildlife is prohibited:
-
Section 8.3 of the community's Declaration of Covenants, Conditions and Restrictions (CC&Rs) prohibits residents from feeding wildlife in the community other than birds. Additionally, Paragraph 2.1. (e) of Exhibit C of the CC&Rs prohibits capturing, trapping, killing or feeding wildlife including, but not limited to deer, feral pigs, raccoons, opossums, squirrels, reptiles and rabbits.
|
|
|
|
If you need help with removal of a dead or annoying or destructive animal from your property, there are private companies that you can contact by searching online for "animal removal Georgetown Texas".
|
|
Please carry a mask for those times when you are not able to keep six feet of physical distance between you and people that are not in your household. This is especially important to remember when jogging or walking the hiking trails, golf cart paths, sidewalks and when outside with others in potentially close proximity.
