A Superior Court judge said he will study testimony and arguments made during a five-hour hearing Oct. 21 before deciding whether to stop the Foothills Club West Association Board from taking any action on the future of the beleaguered golf course until at least next year.
Judge Daniel Kiley’s announcement came after he queried the board’s lawyer on whether the HOA board could legally vote behind closed doors in 2018 and 2019 to assume the declarant rights that govern land use regulations for the site.
Kiley also questioned the board’s lawyer on whether it would suffer any harm if he issued an injunction forbidding it until at least February from advancing any plan submitted by The Edge, the four-man group that bought the site.
