Hopefully the decision makers got the message loud and clear when Silver Lake was renovated. A resident survey was taken to determine 1) Renovate the existing course and keep it an Executive. 2) Convert it to a newly renovated/built pitch and put.

The results showed an overwhelming desire among residents to keep it as an Executive course, in an area with no pitch and puts. It appeared obvious that a conversion to a pitch and put was favored by the decision makers, but they yielded to the residents overwhelming sentiment. Unfortunately, residents desires don't appear to be requested/considered when planning new golf build out plans in the southern area.

Whoever was in charge of the planning phase 10 years ago appears to have gotten it wrong, at least from the perspective of golfing residents.
