Sasaki Design for City-Brooks Park is anti-golf

Sasaki has presented two plans for City-Brooks Park, neither of which retains the original footprint of the golf course. They MUST present a plan showing the golf course as it is now. Trimming it here and there is not going to work and is dirty pool.

If they close it it would cripple Baton Rouge golf.
The city is running out of holes.

There has been a massive uptick in students playing CP in the last week. We went to an event there last night and I must’ve seen 20-30 young people playing in the hour we were there.

I became a member at Pelican Point recently due to what I’m expecting to be the eventual closure of City Park. I’ve been playing there a lot but my problem was my son and I will often play after school and work, but it would take us 40 minutes to get there.
I enjoy Pelican point but City Park is a special course and their plans to close the course pissed me off. I still go back every once in a while, but if they indeed do close it, I’ll never spend another dime at any BREC facility ever again. frick Baton Rouge, they genuinely frick up every good thing.

And to think those who would re-purpose the golf course in its entirety, or just parts, truly believe EBR parish residents will drive from Baker, Zachary, Central or St. George to a proposed "central park" -- in the congested traffic that is now common in Baton Rouge -- is ridiculous.
If I lived in one those communities, and my mayor who sits on the BREC commission, voted to drastically alter City Park -- I'd have to vote him out -- and recruit my friends/neighbors to do the same.
I have to believe those residents want BREC to spend tax millage dollars on parks closer to them -- instead of $$$ millions on a downtown park.
Leave CP golf course intact.

The problem is the people making these decisions genuinely feel like people like me, and my comment above where I said, " frick Baton Rouge, they genuinely frick up every good thing." is some sort of retarded code for "I'm an old white man and want things back like they used to be when I was a kid", so they overcompensate to try to change things. Leave the damn course alone.

Once it's gone, it's gone forever.

I expect the plan to take the land from #5 and turn one of the other holes into two par 3s. I don’t think there is much we can do.
They are bound and determined to frick with this place. Prepare for more concrete.
It’s better than the alternatives that some of these geniuses have thrown out there.

their plan is to GREATLY reduce the footprint of the CPGC and turn it into a pitch and putt...
