Maslow said that the commu- nity will benefit from the course because it may raise property val- ues, local golf teams will be able to use the course and local students will be hired as caddies. “We want to show the commu- nity that this is something that will help everyone,” he said. Some local residents were on hand at the press conference and said they were pleased with what they have heard thus far. Allen Major, a long time resident of the township, said that he was glad to see the land used for something beneficial. “I've been waiting for something good to be done to the land,” said Major. “This has been sitting here for so long and it is good to see someone finally doing something with it.” ‘Maslow said that community reaction has been positive thus far. He mentioned he received only one letter that “...could be consid- ered negative.” Maslow said a resident wrote the letter and asked about the effects of the course on the envi- ronment, roads and water. “I don’t think it was as much a criticism as much as someone inquiring about our plans,” said Maslow. He added that architects and TEE TIME - Richard Maslow, a principal in the planned Huntsville Golf Club to be built in Lehman, announced that the new course will be open in 1993.
