POWC
Providing Information to our Members
Welcome to POWC
The purpose of POWC has always been to provide information to its membership. POWC's objective is for its members to be the best-informed individuals on the Island on matters of importance to the Island we love-whether our membes live on the Island or have second homes here. Previously known as Property Owners Who Care, POWC dropped the words because people do not need to be island property owners to care about the Island. POWC's purpose is to present accurate and unbiased knowledge of both Island issues and opportunities.
POWC's overarching vision for the City of South Padre Island is to have:
1. 100% transparency in government
2. A family-friendly environment for the Island
3. Support the City of South Padre Island in attracing young families and building a strong economy for the Island that is robust all 12 months of the year
Our Strategy: Supporting
