"Most local residents were thrilled when Eastwood, Ueberroth, Palmer and others bought the company in 1999 for $820 million. Its previous owner _ Taiheiyo Club Inc., a Japanese company _ had proposed building another golf course as well as 315 new homes." Seems like they put their money up to keep it from being developed much more. They're proposing to build many fewer houses (132) and preserve more land. They do need to recoop the money they invested. Looks like a compromise and more environmentally conscious than the previous owners. (although the story is slanted in the other direction) Not nearly so black and white - that's why they have community support.
