Thanks, IPD. It appears that the same is also the case in N.C., and I was mistaken about legislative approval ...

It always gets confusing, since I spend half the day in South Carolina, and half in North Carolina.
I was also incorrect in my spelling ... it is Regent Park.
Phillip -- you might also want to watch for IRS agents in the development, since they have a federal tax lien, to the tune of about $13 million, against the corporation that owns the golf course, some offices and the ROADS within the community, along with some condos in the tower. Having a vested interest in this property now, I'm such they have someone on-premises to monitor the corporations' business on a daily basis.
The roadways are in need of serious repair, according to reports in the local newspaper, but the county won't take over responsibility of the roads without the corporation making major improvements. That seems unlikely, considering the corporations' financial status. At the same time, the corporation is past deadline on submitting design plans for fixing the decaying towers started in the Heritage USA days, and the county plans on having it demolished in January unless plans are forthcoming in the near-future.
With regards to the Crime Prevention Group, keep in mind they may be using a commercial conventional or trunked system operated by an SMR company ... rather than owning their own radio system. This would be even more-likely if they provide security services throughout the Charlotte metro area.
If such is the case, they might have no licenses in their name.
