If you are not familiar find Spanish Springs, follow Morse South (Hacienda Hills site is VERY close) You will have to enlarge the area several times to see it well. One picture is worth a thousand words. |
As usual, you make a very good point. Everybody should look at that map.
Has anyone who has already jumped to conclusions seen the plans for these apartments? It looks to me the only place to build would be where the existing clubhouse and restaurant/pool is located, on the east side of Morse. I suppose there could be construction just across Morse on the west side if they take out the 9th hole of Palms. Everything else is existing homes and nature preserve. I don't think they could build apartments where some of the golf holes are located---no room. Look at the map again. Please, someone, point out which golf course/view homes would be looking "at the back of an apartment building".
Here's a suggestion from left field----If they are so hell bent on removing the HHCC clubhouse/restaurant, why not build a new and improved Katie Belle's there? Of course the profitability would be in question, might be better to build it further south where the demographics suggest a somewhat younger population.
Overall, sounds like residents and posters on TOTV need to take a deep breath and find out what is actually planned.
