Chapter 7
Golf Facilities
At installations where the necessary land is available for
the purpose, and where there are no foreseeable opera-
tional requirements for the land, golf facilities may be
provided as shown in Table 7 - 43.
The planning for a golf course should consider the amen-
ity potential of juxtaposing housing and this large open
green space. Community facilities may also benefit from
adjacency to and overview of this green area. Golf club
houses and other support facilities may, if the siting is
convenient, be co-located or consolidated with the Main
Post Community Activity Center. Facility sharing poten-
tials exist in lounges, games, snack bar, and support
spaces between golf and other active sports and social
recreation functions.
