Del Webb V.P. Kevin Johnson refuses to rectify problems that he and Del Webb created and continue to create for homeowners that purchase homes on the Whisper Creek Golf Course in Sun City Huntley, Illinois.
Mr. Johnson and his predecessors knew that these homes would be hit by errant golf balls and yet they built the homes with siding that shatters when hit by golf balls, windows that break instead of using tempered glass and decks and patios that are unusable because they are unprotected from flying golf balls.
Sales people lied to homeowners and told them that their homes would not be hit by golf balls or if they were the siding would not break. To make matters worse they have included waivers in the sales contract trying to release themselves from any liability or recourse.
In their literature they claim to provide superior quality construction. If this is the case, why is there a constant stream of houses on the golf course with holes in their siding, broken windows and decks and patios that homeowners are afraid to use?
The only recourse given to homeowners is to try and find the golfer who hit their homes and get payment from the golfer. This is usually unworkable or impossible and can result in nasty confrontations and threat from the golfer. So much for the quality lifestyle that Del Webb promises.
Mr. Johnson, I challenge you to send in a rebuttal. An honorable man would defend his actions. If you refuse, it would seem that you are without honor and/or conscience.
