Pug.... Just a clarification. Our amenity fees do not pay for nightly entertainment. That is provided by the Developer's entertainment department and primarily funded by fees he assesses to the commercial businesses at the squares.

Also, the landscaping and common area maintenance is primarily funded via the annual maintenance assessment we pay. This is the roundabouts, entrance gates, culdesac, etc....propery owned by the numbered districts.

The amenity fees probably fund the landscape maintenance for the amenity facilities.... Rec centers, pools, exec golf, postal stations

Who owns and who pays for what can be complex,but, somehow it all seems to work and is done at a pretty reasonable fee structure.
