Sun City Residents Protest “NO Vote” claim on Bylaws changes
Sun City Residents Stonewalled on By-Laws vote by Pulte controlled Board of Directors. Changes to By-law provisions that directly impact resident's economic wellbeing and/or contractual rights are typically brought before an organization's membership to vote on. However, the changes being proposed in Sun City are to be approved by the Developer Controlled Board and Pulte Corporation, without a resident vote.  Residents have been frustrated by the processes being followed regarding these fundamental changes and the outright dismissal of the many objections.

Sun City Residents Protest “NO Vote” claim on Bylaws changes   See Photos
Sun City
Residents Stonewalled on By-Laws vote by Pulte controlled B oard of Directors. 

Resident spokesman, Jack Stroobandt, calls this statement “poppycock”. The Developer’s Declaration [XXI 21.2] states “Declarant may unilaterally amend this Declaration for any purpose.” There are two caveats: 1] amendment shall not adversely affect the title to any Lot unless the affected Owner shall consent thereto in writing. 2] Provided the amendment has no material adverse effect upon any right of any Owner.  Permitting vote on these contractual changes is a decision well within the Developer’s “Unilateral” scope of authority

Nearly two years ago, the Pulte Corporation controlled Board of Directors of Sun City Texas, asked a small group of Residents to review and propose changes to “Simplify and Clarify” the Community Association’s By-Laws and Covenants. However, Residents have identified and are objecting too many of the proposed changes which materially impact their contractual rights, including increased fees, leasing options, voting rights, right of petition, and limitations on open governance. 

Changes to By-law provisions that directly impact resident's economic wellbeing and/or contractual rights are typically brought before an organization's membership to vote on. However, the changes being proposed in Sun City are to be approved by the Developer Controlled Board and Pulte Corporation, without a resident vote.  Residents have been frustrated by the processes being followed regarding these fundamental changes and the outright dismissal of the many objections.

The Resident protest has been driven by this undemocratic process and is intended to persuade the Pulte controlled Board to conduct a member vote on the Sections and Articles at issue.
