Demolition is underway at the city-owned Hidden Falls Golf Club in Meadowlakes as work moves forward with a renovation project approved by voters in 2023, expected to be completed by September 2027.
The project will replace aging golf course facilities, located at 220 Meadowlakes Drive, with a new clubhouse complex featuring a pro shop, restaurant and bar, gym, meeting rooms, and a swimming pool about 1,000 square feet larger than the current pool.
Residents will have one final opportunity to use the putting green before it is removed during a Final Putt event at 4 p.m. on March 23.
Voters approved a $7.5 million bond on Nov. 7, 2023, which will fund construction and utility system improvements. The bond will be repaid through property taxes and utility revenue, with the average household expected to pay about $100 more per year to fund the bond payments.
City officials say the existing buildings require significant repairs. Demolition of the pro shop, pool and restaurant facilities are in progress, and a temporary pro shop is open so golf operations can continue during construction.
Once demolition is complete, crews will begin site grading and utility installation, followed by foundation work, building the structure and completing interior systems.
