Pact irks golf course neighbors over expansion plans
Richard Sopres of El Cuadro Homeowners Association says the Coronado Golf Course expansion into Indian Bend Wash threatens about 300 homes. He alleges the city struck a land deal to move the course and surface Miller Road frontage, dumping fill near homes and devaluing property. Neighbors claim the plan saves maintenance costs but creates a bermed dirt barrier and higher density. The group has hired attorney Hazle Burch to explore legal recourse.
