Subject:Laguna Lake Golf Course
Dear Mayor Stewart and Members of City Council,
As a long time city resident, I am writing to express my concern regarding the possible repurposing of
Laguna Lake Municipal Golf Course. Considering no new vacant land is being considered within the city
limits for recreational uses, it would seem the wise thing to do is to retain the recreational space we
currently have. If the city is concerned about costs, then please consider better utilizing the space. Look
at what other golf courses in the county are doing, ie disc golf, concerts, tournaments, lessons etc.
City planning includes green areas, be it parks, green belts, open space or recreational areas. This
recreational area is already established, and used by young and old, school kids, professionals and
tourists. In recent years there has been multiple housing developments added to the citty. The Damon-
Garcia Sports Fields were added in 2005. Multiple housing units have been added since 2005 and no
large recreational areas have been added.
Please save the existing recreational opportunities. As our population grows the recreational
opportunities should grow also, rather than decline.
Thank you for your time,
Sue Viola
