Indianapolis LP councilman seeks to get city out budget rough by selling off government golf courses

Ed Coleman, Libertarian member of the City-County Council in Indianapolis, sought support today for a proposal to cut unneeded spending as many taxpayers struggle to make ends meet.  Coleman proposed the city sell off 12 of its government-owned golf courses.

"Most of our golf courses currently aren’t making money, and the ones that are aren’t making much," Coleman told Indianapolis’ Channel 6 News. "In economic times like these, we should look into whether we should be in the golf business or not."

Coleman’s proposal was tabled indefinitely.
