TITLE:
MUNICIPAL GOLF COURSE
DEVELOPMENT UPDATE (ACTION)
RECOMMENDED ACTION:
Review staff update and endorse a preliminary design concept to utilize a portion of
Veteran's Memorial Park to support the development of a municipal golf course.
ITEM EXPLANATION:
City staff in conjunction with the Golf Course Steering Committee have been working
over the past several years to develop a municipal golf course. To date, issues under
evaluation have included acquisition, environmental, design and operational
considerations. The recently acquired property for the golf course includes 250 acres
north of Palomar Airport Road, immediately adjacent to Veteran's Memorial Park,
bisected by College Avenue. Current design considerations have incorporated
approximately 35 acres of the southwest portion of the park site in order to
accommodate an 18-hole course layout.
John Cahill, Municipal Projects Manager, will update the Commission on the municipal
golf course development strategies, design concepts, operational and environmental
issues. Mark Steyaert, Park Development Coordinator, will address the Commission
regarding the proposed golf course design concept as it relates to the Veteran's
Memorial Park Master Plan.
