cted approximately on the same footprint as the previous building.

Scope of Work

The proposed design seeks to replace the Clubhouse building and all amenities, activate this vibrant community space, maintain the continued operation as an important regional recreational resource, improve accessibility for the general public and to avoid the displacement of the diverse user groups that rely upon the well-established recreational and cultural opportunities that Golf Clubhouse and course provides.

The program of the new building consists of a public restroom, a golf pro shop, a food and beverage concession, and back‐of‐the house spaces for required utilities and storage. The site improvements will provide two accessible parking spaces and an accessible pathway to connect the building patio to the putting greens and driving range.

This project is currently being funded by the Rec and Park Open Space Fund.

The construction contract award for this project was approved by Recreation and Parks Commission on May 19, 2022 ( PDF ).
