Before construction begins on a new clubhouse at the Roseland Golf Club, the City of Windsor is seeking public input.
The city has planned a public meeting on July 31 where it will display designs of the new clubhouse. The meeting, scheduled from 3 p.m. to 7 p.m., will take place at the existing clubhouse.
A concept was created by GGA Partners, an international consulting firm and according to the city, a "trusted advisory to many of the world's most successful golf courses, private clubs, resorts and residential communities. It developed the business plan, strategic plan, and public consultation.
The design includes increased focus on golfing and the golf course, a smaller footprint for the clubhouse, outdoor seating, and concessions. It still needs the city council's approval.
"The Roseland Golf Course Clubhouse represents a significant investment at Roseland. Public consultation has been a key piece of the puzzle with all developments at Roseland for years, and public input on the concepts for the new clubhouse is vital to the overall success of the project," said Mayor Drew Dilkens. "The planned public open house and survey are being brought forward during the busy golf season to ensure robust engagement with those who will use the future clubhouse."
Windsor will also release a public survey on July 31, which will stay open until August 15.
The city has set aside $5.7-million in its ten-year capital plan to pay for the construction.
