Said her realtor told her there would be a pool when she bought in 2019, and that residents were told the playground would be for younger children only. Raised safety concerns about a 10-foot drop-off near the proposed playground.

Said about half the residents were sold on the pool, and warned that approving the swap would let future developers off the hook for promises. Wants an amenity equivalent to the pool and clubhouse.

Wants the dispute settled and the amenity built, but done right — with the fence, signs, and rubber matting in writing. Said the unfinished site is an eyesore and the builder hasn't shown good faith on timelines.
