Golf aficionados in Hollywood will have to take a brief intermission from their swings at the Eco Golf Course this summer due to construction work. The City of Hollywood Department of Public Utilities is finishing up a new pump station, an endeavor that's part of a larger initiative to comply with Florida's environmental laws requiring the elimination of ocean outfalls, as reported by the city's official announcement.
Starting Monday, May 5, till mid-July, the northern part of the golf course will be closed to public access while the construction, which includes installation of high-voltage infrastructure, takes place daily from about 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. The Eco Golf Clubhouse, however, will maintain its hospitality, opening Wednesday through Friday from 3:00 p.m. to 7:30 p.m. and weekends from 2:00 p.m. to 7:00 p.m. for those looking to escape the heat of a midday sun.
To alleviate the inconvenience for its patrons, Eco Golf Club has arranged with the Department of Parks, Recreation and Cultural Arts a special offer. Golfers can enjoy discounted rates at Orangebrook Golf & Country Club during the construction phase by calling 954.921.3404 for information on the discounted rates, as an alternative to their usual locale.
The South Regional Wastewater Treatment Plant's expansion onto the greens is a strategic piece of the city's compliance with state mandates. The Department of Public Utilities extends its gratitude to the community for its patience during this period, as mentioned in the city's statement. For those seeking more context or details surrounding the project, queries can be directed to 954.921.3930.
