Lorain plans municipal 18 hole golf course at Elmwood Park
City park board began preliminary work on a municipal golf course at Elmwood Park on North Ridge Road. With 105 acres owned and 25 more needed, the project could cost about 10 000 per hole for an 18 hole course. The plan aims to serve all county residents and may seek state or federal aid. A man made lake is proposed to aid flood prevention for northern residents. A June 24 meeting will discuss further.
