The City of Roanoke purchased Countryside Golf Course in 2005. Since then they have had one developer withdraw and one developer rejected after multiple deadline extensions. The golf course continues to operate until November 2009. The next City Council will decide the community’s fate.

313/93504 = 0.335% of the population of Roanoke has spoken. Our mayor would probably call that a mandate!
Yes, and what an improvement it is in city government too! The prior mayor only required .000229% of the voters of So Roa before such a proclimation were made. Good going Mayor Bowers
Anon.....Yes, it is less than 1% who have spoken on the site. HOWEVER, let's talk about another appeal to council which appears to be going forward without much opposition. I believe the number supporting a dog park was about 100?! That's about 1/3 of those who voted for Countryside to remain a golf course. FYI: There were over 1000 signatures on a petition to keep CS as a golf course.
