BOF Vows to Improve Longshore Golf Course

Members of the Board of Finance vowed tonight to do all that they can to improve conditions at the town-owned Longshore Golf Course. Discussing plans to outsource golf course maintenance following two seasons of deteriorating conditions on the course, Avi Kaner (l) board chair and a Republican selectman candidate, said: “We will make this happen. We don’t report to the unions. We report to the taxpayers.” Kaner said Democrat Janis Collins (2nd l) and Republican Michael Rea (3rd l) would serve on a committee to help implement an outsourcing plan.
