The 18-hole county-owned Park Ridge Golf Course will soon be getting a makeover.
The Parks & Recreation Department expects to spend $1.7 million during the summer to modernize and restore the greens. After 16 years of use, the course needs some upgrades that will be paid from golf course revenues.
Special Facilities Director Paul Connell said 6 inches of soil and grass around bunkers will be removed and replaced. Six feet of sod will also be removed around the greens. And sod from several tees will be releveled because of settling. Any drainage issues will be addressed as well.
