Re: ?Golf course, YMCA on candidates? minds? (TNT, 10-2).
Let?s look back to see what the original purpose of the Sumner Meadows Golf Links was, other than for golf. It was promised that when there was a profit coming from the golf course, this money would support the parks and recreation department; it was hoped this would be forever.
Fast forward 20 years: The golf course never made a profit, but the land under the golf course did. So when you sell this open space and collect the $50 million, plus pay off all the debt the golf course incurred and you end up with, say, $20 million left over, would this be considered a profit? And if it is, wouldn?t it be obligated to fund the parks and recreation department for the community as originally promised?
If you blink and don?t speak up, Sumner, this money will filter its way into everyone?s pocket at city hall, and we the people along with the park and recreation department will never see anything from it.
The citizens need to make sure the original promise is fulfilled.
