Sinclair: Attention turns to local election in Sun City
Posted
Now that our ballots have been cast in the more highly publicized elections, it’s time to turn our attention to the local one for five seats on the Recreation Centers of Sun City Board of Directors.
Online voting is well underway, with seven candidates vying for those five seats. Two of those candidates are incumbents. While no two people are completely responsible for the arrogant, ignorant way in which the board has done business since March — absolutely no effort to accommodate the needs and desires of residents — they were also not part of a solution to several issues, including pickleball limited to singles for months, gyms closed with no effort made to get a variance from the state, no availability of Sundial (or anywhere else) for club meetings, although the Board has met there without interruption — among dozens of issues not addressed.
Please vote to put five new voices on the board, hopefully leading it to move forward from the virus — always with caution, but never with fear. And hopefully actually listening to the input of, and respecting the rights of, their fellow residents.
