HOA follow-up after Flat Rock advisory committee meeting

From the Highland Lake Residential Homeowners Association (all highlighting and links are my emphasis):

To: Villege of Flat Rock Council:

At the meeting of the advisory committee today, Ginger Brown and I [Bob Bailey] submitted the attached Memorandum (with the Exhibits referred to therein) setting forth the position of the Highland Lake Residential Homeowners' Association regarding the proposed conversion of the Highland Lake Golf Club to a regional soccer complex. For the reasons stated in that Memorandum, we urge you to advise the County Commissioners that you are unanimously opposed to the County acquiring the Highland Lake Golf Club and the development of the soccer complex.

Our attorney, Robert Dungan, poses the following: "How can the Council 'endorse' (read 'approve') a permit if no application with full details is filed and properly reviewed? What if the Council endorses the plan, but then later finds the permit application to be deficient or unacceptable? And in the meantime, Henderson County would have closed the purchase. The Council must be told that this would result in a suit by Henderson County. On the other hand, if it is 'pre-approved' the Council will face a formidable legal challenge from you [Highland Lake Residential Homeowners' Association, Highland Golf Villas Association and Statonwoods Homeowners Association]."

Again, we respectfully ask you to say no and bring this matter to an end.
