During a recent government meeting, discussions centered around the enforcement of a 14-day maximum rule for residents of Sun City, particularly regarding the use of community facilities by non-residents. One member raised concerns about the lack of enforcement of this rule, suggesting that it has not led to significant issues thus far. They highlighted anecdotal evidence of residents who maintain ties to Sun City while temporarily living elsewhere, emphasizing that these individuals continue to contribute financially to the community through various fees.

The speaker argued that the potential for abuse of the rule may be overstated, noting that many residents have legitimate reasons for needing flexibility, such as family obligations. They pointed out that the current restrictions disproportionately affect local grandparents wishing to host their grandchildren, regardless of their place of residence.

Despite these arguments, the motion to amend the enforcement of the 14-day rule was ultimately voted down, with a tally of 3 in favor and 6 against. The outcome reflects ongoing tensions between maintaining community standards and accommodating the needs of residents with family outside the area. The discussion highlighted the need for a balanced approach to community regulations, considering both the interests of residents and the potential for misuse of facilities.
