From the Express-News:
Amid concerns from nearby residents, a proposed championship disc golf course, pavilion, walking trails and other amenities are no longer moving forward in Helotes.
City Council members voted on Apr. 14 to withdraw their support of seeking a state-funded, $500,000 grant to help pay for the project. It was planned for 58 city-owned acres in the Iron Horse Canyon Natural Area.
Wait a minute. Did you say the state of Texas, which I hear is facing a pretty serious budget problem, gives out $500k grants to build frisbee golf courses?
The article mentions the project would have required an additional $250k from the City of Helotes. A $750k frisbee golf course? In a Natural Area?
