Golf fees to go up at Los Angeles County public courses

Los Angeles County public golf course fees are going up.

The county Board of Supervisors voted unanimously Tuesday to raise the 18-hole weekend golf course greens fee from $33 to $35. The weekday 18-hole golf course fee will rise from $25 to $26.

The fees are scheduled to go into effect on April 1.

Officials with the county Department of Parks and Recreation said the county's golf course fees are about 25% less than the average fees at similar municipal and public golf courses in the region.

Officials last raised fees at L.A. County courses in 2009.

now we are paying more for a round of golf to pay for the pensions of city and county workers. fantastic. It also cost $5 more this year to register my dog.... not for any benefit of my pet, just to help pay for more union idiots' pensions.
