This book was released on 2005 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Abstract: This study was intended to explore the nature of the relationship that exists between golf course housing developments and the municipalities in which they are constructed in terms of their effect on growth and development in those cities. Five Ohio cities were selected for their geographic locations in counties experiencing rapid population changes, and for their similar demographic profiles. City Planners were interviewed in each city to get a first hand look at growth trends and expert observations of the effects of golf courses in their respective cities. Three of the cities, Springboro, Miamisburg, and Centerville; all built public, municipal golf courses with attached, upscale housing developments. The courses were all built with different reasoning and goals in mind, but all had similar results on their communities. Dublin has been home to many privately built, "member only" golf clubs for many years and has seen tremendous growth starting at about the time its first major course was built. Only in the last five years did planning begin for a municipal course in Dublin. Franklin does not have a golf course, and that is by design. Officials in Franklin believe that residential growth is an unnecessary burden on the local government which sustains a revenue deficit on every new house built in the city. The cities that built municipal courses did so for many reasons, but always mentioned were hopes to encourage residential expansion, increase property values, and attract new commercial opportunities. The results of this study would indicate that golf courses do all of those things in communities and, when used properly, can be quite an effective municipal tool. In the private sector, land developers seem to use golf courses as insurance policies for their investments because houses in developments with golf courses sell better than those without. The effects of golf courses, while often fulfilling some municipal goal, can exacerbate a city's problems if the growth begins to come too fast. The impact is usually first felt by a city's school district which pays more to educate one student than it can collect from each family's property taxes. If the growth spurt continues for too long, a city may find itself unable to keep up with costs of providing services and infrastructure to new developments. The nationwide trend of building golf courses with housing does not appear to be slowing. The effects of this phenomenon are generally well known which make it a useful tool when managed properly.

Download or read book Hole in One Or Lost in the Rough written by Lucas Riley Mortensen and published by . This book was released on 2023 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The sport of golf is facing an existential crisis. Since the mid-2010s, there have been fewer players playing fewer rounds at fewer courses. In 2021 alone, 130 18-hole equivalent golf courses closed in the United States. This trend will continue to impact all types and sizes of communities across the country. A shuttered golf facility offers an opportunity for land use conversion and redevelopment. In built-out and developed communities, the opportunity to plan for and manage a golf facility's redevelopment is an exciting and important challenge. This paper reviews three shuttered golf courses in the Kansas City, Missouri metropolitan area and seeks to understand how each facility's respective community's land development code supported or opposed its redevelopment. This paper also profiles the history of golf in the United States with an emphasis on golf courses as tools of real estate development and wealth generation. This paper determines that, in the Kansas City, Missouri region, core golf courses without internally, integrated residential land uses are more likely to successfully redevelop with one or many new land uses. Golf courses with intentionally integrated 10 residential land uses may be more challenging to redevelop as proximity of land uses and existence of explicit and implied covenants.

Download or read book Adaptive Golf Course Redevelopment written by Timothy Joseph Lysett and published by . This book was released on 2015 with total page 88 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Unknown to much of the general public, the golf industry is currently in a state of ongoing retraction. One of the many outcomes of this retraction is the closing of hundreds of golf courses across the country, leaving many residential communities that where designed around these open green spaces lacking an integral part of their identity. The Calusa Country Club Community of Kendall Florida, is one such place. Like many closed golf courses throughout the United States, Calusa is currently caught in a state of limbo. As the centerpiece of a master-planned residential community developed in 1970, the golf course once served as the identifying amenity for the surrounding community. Today that identity stands in jeopardy as the course is now closed and its current owners intend to redevelop the property. As is typical for many residential golf course redevelopment projects, Calusa's future is clouded by competing stakeholder agendas and legal stalemates, both fueled by the proposed redevelopment's alteration of the physical, social and economic identity of its surrounding community. The current property owner's redevelopment proposal seeks to remove the open space that the golf course offers in favor of additional single-family homes. This intention removes one of the primary reasons why these residents chose to reside in a master planned golf community, specifically its close proximity to a manicured open space nessessitating an ongoing dialog between these stakeholders. It is at this junction within the continual dialog between this project's various stakeholders that this thesis interjects itself with the objective of presenting an alternative plan to that of the proposed redevelopment. This thesis aims to demonstrate the potential for residential golf course redevelopment projects to present balanced outcomes suited to the priorities of its various stakeholders while simultaneously maintaining the identity of the community and its connection to open space.
