Petition started by Candidate Name, Liberal for Electorate
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.
