The New Desert Mountain Membership Fees Have Been Confirmed

Desert Mountain Club held their third townhall meeting this past Friday to discuss further details about the turnover. As of that morning there were only 144 more Yes votes needed to confirm the “Global Resolution”, which would officially set the turnover date to December 31st. I’m glad that members have gotten their votes in and are doing their part to make this a smooth transition.

The Advisory Board announced that the new Equity Golf Membship price will be reduced from $325,000 to $140,000 and the Equity Club Membership will be reduced from $100,000 to $40,000. This is a significant reduction and absolutely necessary. The new pricing will take effect as of January 1, 2011.

There were a few members that demonstrated their frustrations over the new membership fees and club bylaws but just like last month’s townhall meeting, the overall majority of members were pleased with what the Advisory Board has come up with. Those that were not happy with the new fees were simply upset that they are no longer going to get the amount that they had originally expected upon the sale of their memberships.
