discussion at the regularly scheduled monthly Golf Advisory Committee meetings. At

tennis courts and tot -lot was presented to the members.
Members of the Golf Advisory Committee also attended the Par 3 community

Following the discussion the following motion was made and passed. The members
requested it be forwarded to the Administration and Commission for further action:
MOTION: The Miami Beach Golf Advisory Committee recommends the Par 3
Golf Course should be used only as a golf course.
