The upcoming HOA board elections in the Foothills Club West Association are starting to become as bitterly contested as the 2020 presidential campaign.
Fueled largely by the debate over the future of the now-closed golf course, the fight between the HOA board and the Club West Conservancy escalated last week as board President Michael Hinz sent the community’s approximate 2,600 homeowners a 2,030-word email that he said addressed “misleading and false assertions by the Club West Conservancy.”
The Club West Conservancy fired back with a 646-word rejoinder that characterized Hinz’s “long, never-ending letter” as “a desperate attempt to make excuses and explain the board’s failure to bring solutions for the golf course to the community over the last decade.”
