Subject:Save Laguna Lake Golf Course
Hello,
I am writing to express my disappointment that the City of San Luis Obispo is considering alternative uses for the Laguna
Lake Golf Course, and to strongly urge the City Council to retain it as a golf course.
As a former Cal Poly student, Laguna Lake Golf Course provided me with a convenient and affordable place to learn and
improve my golf game. Now, with family still in the area, I continue to use the course regularly with my stepbrother and
uncle, and have recently begun teaching my children there as well. Its ten-hole layout and relaxed, welcoming
atmosphere make it an ideal environment for learning, family outings, and accessible recreation for all ages.
Laguna Lake Golf Course is more than just open space (in an increasingly crowded part of SLO) it is a valued community
asset. It serves local high school and college classes, supports youth development programs like First Tee, and remains
an important recreational outlet for families, seniors, and visitors. Removing or repurposing the course would eliminate an
affordable, multigenerational resource that brings long-term community benefit.
I respectfully ask that the City Council preserve Laguna Lake Golf Course and continue investing in it as the unique
community gem it has long been.
Thank you for your time and consideration.
Sincerely,
Paul Borchard
