More than 300 people packed the Ahwatukee Recreation Center Thursday to hear eight development and golfing experts decry the Ahwatukee Farms plan as a threat to their quality of life.
Organized by Save the Lakes, the “golf town hall” panel focused on True Life Companies’ proposal to replace the defunct 101-acre course at Ahwatukee Lakes Golf Club with an “agrihood.”
“We were creating a lifestyle that’s good and safe and healthy for you. Don’t let something happen that will interfere with your lifestyle,” said Wayne Smith, who designed Ahwatukee’s original master plan.
