CORRESPONDENCE
Dear Mayor Jan Marx,
The Laguna Lake Golf Course is an important part of our city's recreational resources.
A great variety of golfers benefit from its affordability and the high quality of playing surface. The course
attracts First Tee players, families, and the young to senior adults. The course gives back to the
community; it provides a place for moderately priced fundraising events that can include non - golfers.
This aids our neighborhood friends.
It is the staff of paid employees, volunteers, Achievement House staff and clients that make the course
so welcome to locals and visitors alike. The little touches mean everything from the compressor to clean
shoes, to the beautiful putting green, a driving range, and the aroma of fresh coffee and bacon in the
morning. LLGC is definitely a Parks and Recreation success.
I don't believe the saying "If it works don't fix it ". I have always felt that you can improve something that
is very good and fine tune it, tweak it a little and make it great. Yes, there are some changes that can be
made, but we must not endanger the existing high quality of the course by cutting corners. Can an
outside vendor /management group invest in improvements to make the course better and make a
profit for its investors too? Some parts of government were never meant.to make a profit. Our
recreational dollars must benefit and enhance the lives of all our citizens.
If there are "just a few" capital improvements that can turn the LLGC into a profit making business, then
why doesn't the city do that for us? Take great care in the choices you make for our benefit.
Sincerely,
Kent and Diana Bittleston
