Auckland Council says it will go ahead with plans that will cut Takapuna Golf Course to nine-holes, despite pleas from the community to preserve the course.
Council met with the course today, to discuss its alternative solution to drain floodwater in to the nearby Shoal Bay.
The plan was recently endorsed by pro-golfer Dame Lydia Ko.
Council says it has decided to progress with its original plan to turn half of the course into flood storage, and understands the new is challenging to the golfing community and especially those in Takapuna.
