A LAST-minute proposal to keep Hull's Springhead Golf Course open should be given serious consideration. That is the view of Lib Dem Councillor Claire Thomas.
Environmental charity Groundworks submitted the proposal on behalf of golf club members on the last day of a two-month consultation over the issue. It is believed to involve transferring the golf course to a new community group. Detailed talks over the submission are expected to take place in the next few weeks.
Cllr Thomas said: "The council's plans for Springhead are flawed. They will not achieve the savings required and there are no plans for the site should it close.
"There is no reason why the Labour admin- istration should be considering closing Springhead. They should seriously consider the business case put forward by golf club members to run the course."
