My two cents: City council meeting could spell bad news for Tucson golfers
Item 9 on the Tucson City Council agenda Tuesday is “Amending Tucson City Golf Rates.”
It’s showdown day. OB Sports, which manages the five city courses, is expected to ask for rate increases. A bigger question is likely to be explored: Can any of the five courses be sold or shuttered?
In November, OB Sports improved its revenue by $38,000 over November 2014, but this is a complicated and unpredictable issue that has been brewing for about 15 years.
If you care about muni golf in Tucson, it might be a good idea to be in the audience Tuesday evening and make yourself heard.
