ElectionDay is almost here! Two pre-qualified candidates will be
running for two upcoming vacancies. State law requires HOAs
to allow for write-in candidates; therefore, an election must
be conducted. Furthermore, homeowners shall elect resident
Board members, as per Sun City Texas governing documents.
Included in this edition of the
Sun Rays
are campaign inserts
for each of the pre-qualified candidates. Residents have had the
opportunity to learn about the candidates, their qualifications
and backgrounds via Special CABlasts, Channel 79 interviews,
and access to candidate websites via
The Elections Committee has mailed out one ballot to the owner
of each lot. Each mailing contains: ballot with instructions,
candidate statements and a small return envelope.
There are two vacancies for resident directors on the SCTXCA
Board of Directors. Youmay vote for up to two of the candidates
listed by placing an “X” in the box beside your candidate’s
name, or your two selections may be a combination of listed
candidates and write-in candidates. There is no limit on the
number of terms a Board member may serve.
Per state law, a ballot must be signed in order to be valid. To
protect your privacy, a third party has been hired to remove
ballots from the envelope and tally results. Ballots should be
marked, signed by the homeowner in the allotted space and
inserted into the small return envelope. Please remember to
verify that the return address information printed on your
return envelope is correct. Ballots should be returned either by
mail, in person or at the ballot boxes at Cowan Creek and the
Social Center monitor stations before the end of the balloting
period on May 28 at 1 p.m.
If you will not be at your Sun City residence to receive a mailed
ballot, please provide the Community Association with a correct
mailing address for your ballot. Begin checking your calendars
for the dates of your trips or other obligations to determine how
election dates might affect you. If you do not receive a ballot in
the mail or it becomes lost, additional ballots will be available
at the Member Services Desk.
