  2. The city doesn’t need golf coarse lands to build housing. There already is enough land but they don’t use what they have appropriately for what’s needed. People need green space in cities and many seniors need golf to keep them healthy. Kids need to learn to golf also for discipline and anger management skills which have been missing.
