Sample Letter To Send To Council Regarding Park Hill Golf Course

SUBJ:Â Proposed Condemnation Ordinance of Park Hill Golf Course
I am writing regarding the proposed ordinance authorizing condemnation of Park Hill Golf Course (“PHGCâ€) land that is scheduled for first reading on December 18, 2017​. I​ urge you to vote “no†or at least to table this proposed ordinance until such time as the City administration can assure City Council that a condemnation action will not jeopardize the legal protections of the open space conservation easement acquired by the City in 1997 from the Clayton Trust for $2 million.
​ ​The conservation easement provides the City and its citizens invaluable open space protections for the 155-acres of PHGC land. It would be a tragedy for City Council to take action that might inadvertently permit unilateral termination of the conservation easement and a squandering of the City’s $2 million investment. Â
Sincerely,
