Golf Cart Path Rules
The cart path that was built by Pulte in 2015 to connect Neighborhood 59 to Sun City Blvd. has rules for its use and I would like to take this opportunity to remind everyone of such rules and ask that all residents adhere to these rules. They are:
- The Cart Path is for golf carts only.
- Pedestrians must remain on the pedestrian trail that is adjacent to the cart path.
- Bicycles must be walked and not ridden while on the entire Cart Path.
- All golf carts must be operated in accordance with State and local law.
- The grounds adjacent to the Cart Path area are considered wildlife habitat. Residents are prohibited from entering those areas.
- Turn around – Don’t drown during high water events.
- The Cart Path will be closed from dusk to dawn.
- The Sun City Texas Community Association shall not be liable for any damage or injury resulting from the use of the Cart Path.
Notes:
- Rules will be posted at either end of the path
- Lockable gates at both entrances will be closed in the event of flooding.

CALLING FOR RESIDENT SUBMISSIONS
Tell Us about Your Summer Job
As a teen, summertime meant suntans, parties and – for many of us – a chance to earn some cold, hard cash. Sun Rays wants to know: Did you have a summer job? What did you do? Did you wear a uniform? Were there any perks? How much were you paid? Did you learn any valuable life lessons? Tell us how you worked hard for the money and your story may appear in the June issue of Sun Rays!
Send in your submissions (300 words or less) by Wednesday, April 10. Photographs are HIGHLY encouraged. Send your submissions & questions to Jaime Calder at [email protected] or call 512-948-7745.

Wanted: NRO Bulletin Editor
Do you receive the NRO Bulletin? It's sent to over 12,000 residents twice a month and it needs a volunteer editor to publish it. Its current editor, Louise Smith, has been doing an awesome job for five years but she thinks it's time for some new blood. She will be happy to work with you and continue as part-time editor until you feel that you can solo! If you
like to be the first person to know what is going on, this is an
opportunity for you. There is no hunting for news, as everyone sends you
their copy to post. If interested, please contact Louise Smith: [email protected] or 830-613-6917.
