Banwart, Community Development Director <br /> and Peter Raatikka, City Engineer <br /> <br />Background: <br /> <br />The proposed Northfork P.U.D. amendment of the concept plan represents a major change due to <br />the change in housing density.

Most recently, the Park Dedication Agreement (as <br />amended) dated May 9, 1989 shows a golf course layout. <br /> <br />Thc "Great Scot" proposed golf course would consist of 21 holes, 3 of which would be practice/ <br />bruited time holes. In addition, the proposed golf course would include a driving range, putting <br />green trod sand trap practice area. Future plans would include a clubhouse and associated parking <br />area. A site plan would be required for the clubhouse facility.
