The city’s finance committee recommended Madison partner with golf course builder Michael Keiser by accepting a donation for improvements to Glenway Golf Course, according to a report from The Capital Times. The proposal suggests the city enter into an agreement with Keiser and his wife Jocelyn, for donated project planning, design, and construction at an estimated value of $750,000.
The improvements would include nine new greens that will be easier to maintain, new fairways and turf grass that requires less water and fertilizer, more natural areas around the course that will help stormwater management, and new walking trails. The donation would also include an investment in energy-efficient mowing units that will reduce time, emissions, and costs.
