With Golfers Teed Off, Council Takes a Swing at Course Hours

The City Council’s executive committee today asked the parks division to find another solution for area golfers.

Starting with the new fiscal year July 1st, the parks department cut hours of operation at several area golf courses. That schedule favors mornings for afternoons, and weekends over weekdays.

“We have six golf courses that are open 40 hours a week. We wanted people to have the opportunity to play when they want to play, and many people like to play golf in the mornings,” said division director Cindy Buchanan. “But some people can’t play in the mornings because they have to work.”
