So many of us Delray residents are excited to have a nice golf course to play. Delray Beach is a worldly-known destination spot. When people visit and like to play golf, let's leave a good impression! And for the locals, well, you have waited long enough. My name is Barry Frette and I live on the golf course and I play golf. Thank you City of Delray for stepping up and making this happen, we all appreciate it.
The next scheduled city meeting is on April 24th, 5:00 p.m. at the golf course.
Below is an image of the the Aerial Site Plan.
Delray Golf Course Plan
A note from Jay Alperin:
"Note that the south nine is to be restored close to the original Donald Ross plans. The north nine are modified to flow more efficiently. Thanks to Kris Moylan for the information. My conversations with City officials indicate that the funding will come from a Revenue Bond and the numbers are far from determined. The plan as of now is to be underway less than a year from now."
Some highlights of their plan:
- Six basic tees create six different courses, so the golf course will be longer and more difficult from the black tees than from the white, blue, red, green and gold tees.
- Most advantageous landing areas are indicated by the black dots, and these areas are generally the most difficult tee shot, but rewards the successfully executed shot with an easier approach shot to the green or second landing area.
- All holes meet the USGA standards for minimum yardages.
- All tees, greens, fairways and immediate rough to be 100% irrigated by an automatic sprinkler system.
- Hole layouts are conceptual.
The Donald Ross south course and Dick Wilson's north course will be restored. There will be new and improved practice facilities, all new irrigation & drain system, new cart paths and cart crossings on the Donald Ross south course, removal of all exotic shrubs and plants, new maintenance facility and restroom/rain shelter upgrades.
