Nominating Committee
Fall 2013 Cycle Report
Submitted by Dan Mason, Chairman,
Nominating Committee
The Nominating Committee reviewed 46 applications to fill
24 openings on our CA Advisory Committees. The commit-
tee interviewed 38 of those applicants―three applicants were
ruled ineligible for not meeting residency requirements, and
five applicants withdrew their applications for various reasons.
The demographics revealed that 16 females and 22 males
were considered for the 24 openings. The Board of Directors
selected nine females and 15 males to fill the open seats on
the various committees. All 10 incumbents who chose to re-
apply were given another two-year term; two incumbents did
not reapply. The Landscaped Maintained Homes Committee
had four openings with only three candidates, which forced
an open seat on their committee.
Again, newcomers to our community were the most active in
volunteering for service. Twenty-two of our applicants have
resided with us for two years or less, and 11 applicants have
a residency of three to six years.
The Nominating Committee conducts an anonymous survey
asking how interviewees felt about our process. Of the 26
surveys that were returned, every responder felt that the
process was fair and unbiased and that they were made to
feel comfortable and welcome during the interview. Several
of the respondents specifically noted that the interviews were
conducted in a professional and respectful manner. If you
are interested in sitting on a committee, be assured that you
should not be afraid of the process.
Looking forward, our next cycle is scheduled to have 20 va-
cancies, with Chartered Clubs, Covenants, Elections and Golf
having no openings. The Nominating Committee strongly
suggests that, if you are interested in serving on a committee,
you familiarize yourself as to how the committee operates, its
issues and, while not mandatory, you should attend a commit-
tee meeting before applying.
Thanks to Carol Roberson for her assistance in providing
the statistics for this report. The committee recognizes Ann
Dodson for her support and assistance as the Board’s Liaison.
Without her hard work, our job would be much more difficult.
We must also thank the residents for volunteering to spend
their time and efforts to make and keep Sun City Texas one
of the nicest places to live anywhere.
