What’s important to Sun City Texas residents?
In preparation for this article, I approached a few residents
to get their input―questions and/or comments about what is
important to them in Sun City Texas. The results were not
very scientific, but they were very interesting. Thanks to all
residents who participated in this effort.
Note: There were no two responses on any one subject and
there was nothing said about golf, which seems to me a strong
indicator that, in general, the community is pretty satisfied
with the way things are being run. Kudos to the staff, our
many committees and to the Board.
I can’t, in this short space, address all of the issues discussed,
so I have picked a few issues that I think have wide interest
and what we are doing to address them:
• Residents with special needs:
A special task force is
now studying this important matter and we should be
getting the results of this study very soon.
• Traffic:
Traffic is the City of Georgetown’s responsibility,
but the CA maintains close communications with the city
and there is even a Sun City Texas resident sitting on one
of the city’s traffic boards. This is an issue to which we can
all contribute―be cautious and courteous.
•Monthly financial reports, including new home sales:
These reports are available on the Sun City Texas website.
On the homepage,
, under the Community
Association tab, click Financial Information. Once on that
page, click on Monthly Financials in the bar on the left-
hand side. You have the option of looking at the current
month and past months.
• What if Pulte elects to build more homes in Sun
City Texas?
Should Pulte choose to add more homes to
our community, residents should be thinking about what
additional amenities they would like to see.
• Firewise:
This is an ongoing project that is funded in the
2014 Sun City Texas budget.
Finally, we had one potential issue that may win the Gold
Medal Award: According to a Fox News release, one HOA has
taken DNA samples of the residents’ dogs in order to identify
and punish those who don’t pick up after their pets. Just shows
how important this matter can be to a community. So, pet
owners―scoop the poop!
