Map of Stonebridge Golf Facility Covenant Modification
Summary
The golf course owner wanted the 1999 rules changed so it could file for 30 new houses without shutting down the course. Homeowners say they bought relying on those recorded protections, and the Board's denial keeps the cap at 105 homes while the course operates. Expect the fight to continue through the Town Board and Zoning Board, which the covenant also requires for any amendment.
