Mayor Godfrey says "No" to selling golf course

Well, its official, Mayor Godfrey is running for reelection in November and surprise- he wants to be electable. Which means he has (probably correctly) scrutinized the tea leaves and decided not to throw the city's support of developer Chris Peterson's plans to build an upscale community and gondola on our city's connection to the mountain that defines our eastern border. Peterson wants to buy Mt. Ogden golf course and fancify it for the benefit of a few moneyed individuals that might choose to live there but trail access restrictions were just too real a possibility. And thankfully, Mayor Godfrey has said "No" to selling the property to Peterson. Mayor Godfrey just cleared a major obstacle towards his third term with this decision. Good for him!
