Default Trail Fees increase 2024

I just heard from a local real estate agent that trail fees have increased to $195 per year. Is this correct?

Has a post that starts "I just heard..." EVER been correct?

What’s wrong with that - there are hundreds of posts about bad course conditions, theoretically, I hard, trail fees should go 100% to executive maintenance.

I trust “I just heard” more than “ I believe”.

Doubt it but if it occurs, would like to see an increase, if 100% of that money goes into the districts buying a sod farm and not re-juvenating the old varieties of grasses that were planted 20+ years ago and hiring the greenskeeper from Glenview.

I'm not sure why folks are giving you a hard time.

Who could possibly more credible in TV, than a local real estate agent?

It is odd that no one has mentioned that it is the Amenity Fee that has increased to $195.00 and not the Trail Fee. Help the original poster out by giving them correct information rather than belittle them for asking a question.
