Save Our Local City Golf Course 

Save Our Greenspace: Protect the Local City Golf Course!

​

We, the undersigned residents of Our City, urge the State Government to reject the proposed development plans for the Local City Golf Course and preserve it as a valuable public open space for all to enjoy.

​

Why We Care

​

The Local City Golf Course is more than just a place to swing a club. It's a vital part of our community, offering:

​

• Green space and recreation: The course provides a much-needed escape from the hustle and bustle of city life, offering walking paths, natural beauty, and opportunities for outdoor activities.

• Affordable recreation: Unlike many private clubs, the golf course offers accessible and affordable recreation for residents of all ages and backgrounds.

• Environmental benefits: The course acts as a green lung, absorbing harmful pollutants and contributing to a healthier ecosystem.

• Community hub: The course hosts tournaments, events, and gatherings, fostering community spirit and social interaction.

 

Development vs. Preservation

 

Developing the golf course would mean:

​

• Loss of precious green space: Replacing the course with buildings would eliminate a vital green oasis in our city.

• Limited access to recreation: Development would likely restrict access to this public space, creating an exclusive environment for residents who can afford it.

• Environmental damage: Construction and development would disrupt the existing ecosystem and its benefits.

• Loss of community character: Replacing the course would erase a cherished part of our community's history and identity.

 

Our Vision

​

We envision the Local City Golf Course remaining a vibrant public space, accessible to all, and offering:

​

• Enhanced recreational opportunities: Expanding walking and biking paths, creating community gardens, and hosting more public events.

• Environmentally sustainable practices: Implementing eco-friendly measures to maintain the course's natural beauty and benefits.

• A space for all: Ensuring affordability and inclusivity for all residents to enjoy the benefits of this green space.
