Some environmentalists have been trying to shut down Sharp Park golf course in Pacifica, owned by the City and County of San Francisco, in an effort to create a national park and protect endangered species. But in a report released Friday, the San Francisco Recreation and Parks Department recommends preserving golf at the course while taking steps to restore habitat. We’ll hear reactions from both sides of the debate.
Guests:
Ross Mirkarimi, San Francisco supervisor, District 5
Brent Plater, executive director and president of the board of directors of the Wild Equity Institute, which wants to close the golf course and turn it into a public park
Richard Harris, co-founder of the San Francisco Public Golf Alliance, which wants to keep Sharp Park open for golf
Jackie Speier, U.S. congresswoman (D) representing California's 12th District
Phillip Ginsburg, general manager of the San Francisco Recreation and Park Department
