I have the opposite feeling without agreeing or disagreeing. I have lived here for 5 years and have never set foot on a golf course. Why should I have to pay for an activity I have never used and probably never will? Same difference!!
Not at all - HUGE difference. You knew what you were buying into (or should have). Non-residents bought into nothing and are getting some amenities free of charge.

I propose that in order to obtain the 365 pass, which is what I as a amenity paying resident have, that the resident applying for the pass for a relative should have to pay an additional amenities fee. Otherwise that relative and his family should be relegated to the 30 day pass. Has this ever been considered? What could be fairer? That would be a benefit instead of the current inequity.


Richie, I really would not like to see this. I want to welcome all - but to open up TV as a pay as you go facility would increase overcrowding - esp on the golf courses.
