This planning effort began in early 2020 following the development of the PROS (Parks, Recreation and
Open Space) Plan which showed the community's desire to explore different uses for the golf course
property owned by the City. In November 2020, City Council unanimously directed staff to engage the
community to explore the feasibility of alternate uses, in addition to continued use for golf. Given the
proximity of the Mountain View Commons Campus, it is the City's interest to explore complementary
uses and plan for this site as well.
