George Rodgers, 6749 Russelia Court, representing the Carlsbad Golf Association, spoke stating they favor providing affordable golf for the citizens of Carlsbad, and this project will not provide affordable golf. James Smith, 1011 Fox Glove View, stated this has been a long process and he thanked Council and all those involved for their dedication. He stated this would help the T.O.T. and bring visitors to Carlsbad as well as provide a golf course for the citizens of Carlsbad. Chris Calkins, 5600 Avenida Encinas, Ste. 100, representing Carltas Company, referenced his letter dated July 11, offering the use of their land for a nine-hole portion of the golf course. He stated he wants the golf course to be successful, and that is why they are offering a portion of their land. Part of the proposed course of the City will be very expensive to build, and until the resort is built, it will be an 18-hole municipal course. If the City uses the Carltas land and builds nine of the holes there, it would be operated as a municipal course until the resort is built and the other more expensive nine holes could be built. Irv Roston, 2075 Playa Road, spoke in favor of the golf course and stated that the only thing to be considered at this time is the request for qualifications to be sent out to potential bidders.
