meadow. <br /> <br />Both DNR restrictions and restrictions in the <br /> <br />dedication of the park by the original developer make eventual <br />public usage of this park very limited. Usage as a public golf <br /> <br />course would allow the land to be used by the public, in a manner <br />consistent with its current topography, and in a manner designed <br /> <br />to continue to preserve the rather passive nature of the Rum <br /> <br />Rivier corridor. <br /> <br /> ' B. Acceptance and Reconveyance of Golf Course Lands. <br /> <br /> The construction and operation of a regulation golf course <br />by !a private entity is extremely financially burdensome and <br />wifihout some type of governmental aid or subsidy it would be <br />difficult for such a project to succeed. Somehow, the initial <br />operating or construction costs must be written down. As stated <br />earlier, however, no request is being made of the municipality in <br /> <br />this case for any type of aid, bonding, or the like. <br /> <br /> i However, there is a method by which the municipality can'~ <br />ssSist, without expending any funds. The owners of the northerly <br />portion of the Planned Unit Development, Thomas W. Anderson, <br />PaUla Anderson, and Berglund & Dom, are prepared to donate that <br />portion of the land necessary for goft course fiarways, directly <br />roi'the City of Ramsey, in fee, for public golf course .usage. It <br />woUld be hoped by the developers that the City of Ramsay would in <br />turn.then, pursuant to Minnesota Statutes Chapter 465.026, convey <br />those lands for $1.00 to Wesley Bulen, pursuant to his commit- <br />ment, to be guaranteed through performance bonds, to construct <br />an!d maintain an l~ho]d golf course over the ].and controlled and <br /> <br /> I <br /> I <br /> i <br /> I <br /> I <br /> I <br /> I <br /> I <br />I' <br /> I <br /> I <br />I <br />I <br />I <br />I <br />I <br />I <br />I <br />I <br /> <br /> <br />
