The Foothills Club West Association board hit back hard at The Edge’s claim that it has been holding up a resolution of the golf course suit and contended it has not lost the declarant rights to the course.
In a filing last week, the HOA board said, “All of the allegations made by The Edge that the Association is somehow being uncooperative in final judgment being entered in this case are absurd.”
As owners of the Club West Golf Course, The Edge wants Superior Court Judge Joan Sinclair to let it into the lawsuit that the Club West Conservancy filed in March 2020 against the old HOA board over the declarant rights to the 164-acre site.
A Superior Court commissioner last November ruled that the old board violated state law and the association’s own by-laws by acquiring the rights from Shea Homes, though the HOA maintains it remains unclear whether Shea Homes still holds those rights.
Shea Homes now is negotiating with The Edge to either buy the course or sell those rights to The Edge.
