THE CLUB HAS NOT APPROACHED THIS MATTER IN A <br />FORTHRIGHT MANNER AND SHOULD NOT NOW BE REWARDED <br />FOR THEIR ACTIONS <br />When the club first cleared this road in May of 1998, they <br />promised the City and the residents that they would only use the road <br />during the construction on County Road 15, that it would be one way, for <br />members only and that it would be closed as soon as the construction <br />was over. They played one neighbor off another, nKiking false <br />assertions about other neighbors' support of their intentions. These <br />tactics allowed Woodhill to create a fait accompli- building the rood <br />without City scrutiny and before the City could stop them. When the <br />matter finally reached City Council, all parties agreed to study the <br />matter further. Instead, the club hired a public relations firm, issued <br />a press release and sued the City. Their attitude toward City <br />ordinances and toward the residents has been manifested in other <br />ways also. It has committed several potential violations to the 1988 <br />maintenance shed CUP. They have installed an accompanying above <br />ground fuel tank in a residential area, installed halogen lights on the <br />side of the shed that faces the neighborhood, and built a garage <br />structure with a concrete floor, not called for in the CUP. Merely by <br />clearing trees last May to build the back road, they have violated the <br />spirit of the 1988 CUP by making the shed far more visible to the <br />neighborhood. We are relating these issues to you not to stir up any <br />undue animosity, but rather to demonstrate why we are leary of taking <br />future promises by the club at face value. <br />THE CLUB HAS NO NEED FOR ACCESS THROUGH WOODHILL <br />AVENUE <br />I <br />I <br />I <br />..
