Warrant Article & Resources

Warrant Article 39 Submission (revised approved 11/03/22 by Moderator Poverman)

(1) Broaden the scope of the Golf Course Landscape Master Plan to consider what environmentally responsible uses are feasible within the 120 acres, taking into account the community priorities identified in the Parks, Recreation and Open Space 2019 Strategic Master Plan Survey, the top 3 of which were Parks and Playgrounds; Trails & Pathways; and Nature Sanctuaries. The plan should include at least one option with a 9 hole golf course. The plan should include potential uses such as a perimeter path, wetland restoration, Miyawaki forest, tree nursery, community gardens, and/or other needs identified and expressed by the Parks and Recreation Commission. Plans should only consider uses that do not result in a further degradation of the natural peatland that currently exists on the golf course.

(2) Use a portion of either the $475K Master Plan funds or the Golf Course Enterprise Fund year-end unreserved fund balance to pay for the updated Plan
