Resident Complaint Against Sun City Anthem Board can have serious ramifications

Resident Files NRS Complaint Against 
Sun City Anthem Board


If you receive emails entitled "Message from the Board President", you, like so many of us, usually hit the "delete" button...but the one received on Monday, March 23, 2015 listed a number of items that will be discussed on the Tuesday, March 24th board agenda review, and addressed at the Thursday, March 26th board meeting.

What caught our eye was one particular item:

A member claim of a violation of NRS 116.3103

We (like 99.99% of you) probably hadn't the slightest idea what this statue included.

So...we researched it and have reprinted it in order for you to understand the SERIOUSNESS of this complaint against the Sun City Anthem board of directors...

...and...how important it is to examine the various candidates who are running for election and reelection...

...as to their past actions in creating any legal (and expensive) association problems in the future.

It covers...

 FIDUCIARY RESPONSIBILITIES OF A BOARD
