I am not a golfer nor have much interest in it. I am very glad to see the strong support for keeping the golf course in some form or another.
I do enjoy playing on fun and creative little miniature golf courses with little bridges and windmills and a few comfortable benches nearby. I miss Del and Elberta’s old roller rink and the ’50s-style bowling alley. We don’t need to lose the golf course.
One thing I absolutely do not want to ride my bike or car by or have to observe is one or more dog parks on that beautiful land. Creating fences and off- or on-street parking so that people can drive in at all hours and throw balls for their dogs in such a place is ridiculous. Especially along San Juan we do not need more traffic complications.
People on bikes die in this community due to poor infrastructure planning. The roundabouts are a great example for a bike rider built-in hazard.
One idea I do like is returning some or all of this land to the native people it was taken from. That would be a good way to start balancing things out around here being that polarization seems to be so popular otherwise.
