@bolded. Technically, I wonder how much of imminent domain plays a role in this? The club still uses municipalities to serve its needs, as I understand it, the privacy is contingent on the ability of the club to charge fees for grounds maintenance or moorings. And if they have a restaurant, they still have to follow the public health code. They still pay property taxes and if they are non-profit they cannot be classified as fully rejection exclusive, especially to children.
It brings to meaning: "This ain't your granddaddy's country club anymore... Grow up and be in the 21st century!"
What we are witnessing is severe growing pains to human evolution, IMHO...
