That's a bit rough isn't it? Why tennis courts specifically and not people with gardens? or Pools? Is it just that anyone who has a tennis court is therefore rich and won't notice the financial loss?
I've seen a pool fit in a subdivided lot. Gardens have use. A tennis court is a bullshit vanity.
Yes.
