As many of you may already know, it appears that the city is planning on reopening Kearsley Golf Course. The course has been mowed within the last day or so and we are excited for that area.
That being said, the Mott Park Golf Course continues to become overgrown and we have had reports of people misusing the course recently — pushing shopping carts full of trash, golfers on the course, etc. The course is an important asset to the Sixth Ward as well as our neighborhood and it is vital that we fight for the course to be maintained as a golf course while the city works out the details with the union.
The city administrator missed a very important meeting on Thursday with the unions and I have no update on when that is to be rescheduled.
I and others have personally reached out to Mayor Dayne Walling, clearly letting him know the position of the neighborhood association and asking that the course be mowed. The association has also reached out to Councilman Sheldon Neeley (Ward 6), Kettering University, McLaren Regional Medical Center, the Flint Children's Museum, the Ruth Mott Foundation and other community organizations for support as we continue to fight for the stability of our neighborhood.
We need your help and request you call the Mayor's Office and express your concern about the condition of the golf course.
