Bill: A couple of historical questions that have been gnawing at me: 1. Why did Sun City West Recreation fees go up so much relative to Sun...
I second the above. It would be the Sun City edition of Mr. Smith Goes to Washington.
Emily, it is not the properties along the course that are deeded as golf only properties, it is the golf course itself that has the deed...
While I truly have no idea what is going on, it looks to me like they are in financial trouble and selling any assets they can, while living...
Quite possible, E. The residents were fighting against the golf course owner redeveloping the property with 270 homes. I think they want to...
I'm not there, Bill. There are ways to change the deed restrictions, but it is not easy and may take working with local government. Notice the...
You think I am kidding about the barbed wired chain link fences and waste land? Take a look down the road in Phoenix at what one Ahwatukee...
When the private courses fail (and they will fail), the only options may be changing the deed restrictions (and it can be done) and changing the...

This is a classic candidate flip-flop.
I agree the deed language holds the key. Just to be clear, I wasn’t suggesting the golf courses be repurposed for more housing. What I had in mind...
Is there anyone who could pull (public information) the deed restrictions (CC&R’s) on the golf courses, which will go a long way toward...
You are thinking the same way I am thinking, Cynthia. What exactly are the obligations with regard to the golf courses? Can the deed restrictions...
I like your thinking here, D! Anything that can be done to promote this website will empower the free press to hold Sun City governance...
I am not going to go as far as saying Sun City is a golf community, but rather Sun City is simply a Community in which golf has played a major...
