MEMBER ISSUE STATEMENTS ARE RELEVANT  FOR SCLH BOARD OF DIRECTORS ELECTION.

Currently SCLH has an election going on for 3 director  positions on the Board and 1 amendment.

I hear and read about the importance of homeowners living at Sun City Lincoln

Hills being involved.
 

I agree it’s important to be involved.  I do not feel my activism and involvement is  valued during this election period.  Other members feel the same. Equal access to express our point of view must meet  the requirements of California Civil Code 5105 allowing  equal access to Association Media, websites  and common areas.

In the past, members like me had our member issue statements displayed  similarly to Candidate Member Statements. This year statements of Candidates running for election are on tables with table cloths with individual spaces in the lodges.
 

This year, member issue statements are relegated to a dark metal bin with drop files with no tags to identify the  individual member’s statements. The  bin is on a table next to the individual candidate statements There is no way to enhance the bin to make it more noticeable.

The visual difference of how the Candidate statements is displayed vs mine as a member says it all . The contrast clearly shows on how important our involvement as  members is taken by our Association.

Other examples, in years past members/homeowners have been allowed to be videoed and our statements placed on the SCLH Resident Website and participate in election forums. This year the opportunity to participate in Candidate Forums and record our issue statements has not been provided.

I believe I have I made my case based on the above, that members advocating a point of view are not being  valued and afforded equal opportunity during this SCLH Election period.
