4/19/10: "Registry fights community apathy" by Anne Randall Stewart, Spokesperson for The Sun City Formula Registry
Subject: Rebuttal to critic Robert Wheeler's letter
against SCFR. Wheeler in uninformed. The Registry faces apathy which is a "soothing state of mind. Dangerous,
but soothing, like dope." Addresses charge that the Registry is trying to change Sun City by giving examples of
the sweeping changes this board has done to remove membership power. The Registry merely wants to restore that power
to the members.

Registry
Subject: Gives the history of events regarding the petition drive. Also, explains the reasons for
rejecting the recall petition [Petition P-03] and the intent to proceed on Oct. 1st when the homeowners return. The
RCSC board has written bylaws and board policies that have removed the ability for the Members to act which is contrary to

etc., "the action of the Members shall prevail."

THE
SUN CITIES INDEPENDENT, Letters, Page 4A, April 8, 2009 Subject: RCSC board wants gutters on Willowcreek costing $435,000. Stewart wants Pacific
Aquascape to be able to bid on the project to keep Willowcreek Del Webb quality. She fears they will be shut out by
specs calling for a gutter which they don't do. If they are, Stewart calls for recall of board members and dismissal
of employees in support of it. UPDATE: Pacific Aquascape was shut out of bidding. On Monday, at the 4/6/09 board meeting,
Tom Beckwith delivered a PA bid for $203,000 or $308,000 depending on the length, which was immediately rejected. So, Willowcreek will get a gutter instead of a water feature and it
will be done by Alliance, a first-time contractor, with no identifiers on their trucks at the construction site.
