RCSC changes sign policy
Posted

Despite opposition from other members, the Recreation Centers of Sun City Board of Directors made changes to its sign, literature and electronic sign policy.
The approved changes allow commercial advertising to be distributed on RCSC properties and its electronic signs at each recreation center. Materials can only be distributed upon management approval and if an RCSC operating division accepts sponsorship of an event or league, or invites and outside company or vendor for the specific purpose of promoting an activity with RCSC.
The electronic sign at Lakeview Recreation Center, 10626 W. Thunderbird Blvd., shortly after its installation.
However, the changes were now approved unanimously. Board members Bruce Alleman and Stella Van Ness voted against the proposals in the board’s Feb. 22 meeting. Board member Dave Wieland abstained during the vote and board member Ron Smith was not present for the vote. Voting “yes” for the proposal were board members Jerry Walczak, Sue Wilson, Jerry DeLano, Dan Schroeder and Dale Lehrer.
Ms. Van Ness said changes to the policy were defeated last year when cardholders objected to allowing commercial advertising, at not cost, on the electronic signs.
“The defeat of that policy came after cardholders objected,” she said. “I don’t believe that was the intent when those signs were installed.
The board approved, unanimously, four other motions that included policy changes for chartered clubs, incident reports, and hearing procedures and cardholder suspensions.
The board also approved, unanimously, chartering two new clubs — the Illinois Club and the Sheepshead Club.
