Electronic Communication

Members, do you prefer to receive our communications electronically?

The Kern City Civic Association (KCCA) currently sends important communications, such as the yearly budget and the Annual Policy Statement package, on paper by U.S. mail to each member’s address. But did you know that you have the right to receive communications electronically, such as via email or fax, instead of by U.S. mail (Civil Code §§ 4040, 4050 and Corporate Code §20)?
PLEASE READ AND SIGN BELOW ONLY IF YOU PREFER ELECTRONIC COMMUNICATIONS.
You have the right to continue receiving communications on paper via U.S. mail which is how KCCA has provided it in the past. This form only needs to be completed by you if you would like to receive future communications electronically instead of, or in addition to, U.S. mail. That is because, according to California law, you are entitled to receive information from KCCA via mail (paper), email, and/or fax. If you want some but not all communications to be sent electronically, please check which ones below that you prefer to be sent electronically.
Note: The election package must be mailed because it includes envelopes for members to mail ballots back.

Also, please note that requesting information by fax can mean that 50 or more pages might be transmitted.

KCCA cannot and will not sell or transmit a member’s personal information for any purpose without the consent of the member.
PLEASE READ AND SIGN BELOW

Notice of Concern Form

The board of directors is aware that some things people do can be annoying to others. Some matters may be within the scope of Kern City, some items may be issues for the City of Bakersfield. While the Board cannot monitor the behavior of our residents and guests, we believe you have an obligation to report on things which may be against our CC&R’s, by-laws, or which may be offensive. The information you provide will help the Board make decisions about what might be done to resolve concerns.
