A group of Club West homeowners who want the beleaguered golf course to be restored or turned into a preserve recently fired back at their HOA board’s effort to dismiss their lawsuit over what they call an illegal attempt to control the site’s future.
The Club West Conservancy has sued the Foothills Club West Community Association board’s assumption of the course’s “declarant rights” without getting the approval of 75 percent of homeowners.
Four investors who banded together as the Edge Group have been in escrow since last fall to buy the course from owner Wilson Gee, who put it up for sale at a price of $850,000 in 2018.
