Task force weighs options to stabilize Cedar Rapids golf operation
The Twin Pines Golf Course Task Force concludes the four course operation needs 3.5 million to pay debt and 1.5 to 2 million for improvements. Options include selling 20 acres of Twin Pines, potentially reducing debt and funding upgrades, but faces public resistance and reduced greenspace. The panel favors mixed funding—donations, naming rights, grants—over selling all courses or leasing operations.
