Glen Annie Golf Club says it will close - Pacific Coast Business Times


Glen Annie Golf Club says it will close - Pacific Coast Business Times

“We have no other options, and sadly, we are forced to close our doors on July 6,” the club announced in a June 22 newspaper advertisement. “We’re not sure what will happen to Glen Annie, but we know the closure directly affects the 75 people who work here, as well as the dozens of events planned in coming weeks.”


Glen Annie singled out the council’s vote as the driver for its decision to close.


“In a way, the city was being asked to bail out the owner for some unfortunate business decisions made years ago,” Connell said. “Essentially, the owner of the golf course is targeting the City Council with the onus of the golf course shutting down, but I don’t think they’ve explored all the options they have. They’re talking about 195 homes. I think that would more than cover their debt.”
