MONTGOMERY – After more than a year without a clubhouse or any substantive information about its replacement, April Sound residents learned about a timetable for construction of a new facility.
A letter issued by the April Sound Property Owners Association last week stated that final drawings will be completed by mid-November. Construction will begin in February, and the grand opening will take place in October 2009.
On Sept. 21, 2007, a three-alarm blaze destroyed the April Sound clubhouse, originally constructed in the 1970s. Although Dallas-based ClubCorp provided a rendering of a proposed replacement facility in December 2007, residents began voicing concerns about continued delays, a lack of information and no construction progress.
According to the ASPOA letter, the new clubhouse at April Sound will be 19,000 square feet, approximately 20 percent smaller than the previous facility, at a cost of $4.5 million to $5 million. If the schedule released is achieved, the new clubhouse will be completed 25 months after the fire.
“This clubhouse should be quite a showplace…”
