Attached is my understanding of the where we cannot put teeboxes or pins. Jeff Crum has gotten this information from the Parks Dept.
We can't be within 200 feet of the parking lot. I don't think it was specifically mentioned, but I cordoned off the path to the bridge on the map, since it is a high foot traffic area.
The area that is marked off in the northwest floods every year so we can't put anything there.
The triangle of land at the north end was specifically mentioned as being somewhere we cannot put pins, teepads, or play through due to a nude beach in the area.
Beyond that, we are allowed to put teepads near the river throwing inland. They just cannot be too close to the edge due to erosion issues (hole 3 at Downriver being an example of this).
The general rule is that there can be no chance of an errant disc going over the edge of the bank. If there's any doubt, then use the specific rule: 200 feet from the river for teeboxes and pins.
I believe the West Hills area south of the river has the same basic rules. There can be no chance of a disc going into the river or into the road, for the safety of our golfers and people driving by.
As far as course flow, I think the preferred layout is 12 holes at People's Park and 6 holes in the West Hills area south of the river, but that isn't set in stone by any means. If you have 14 amazing holes at People's Park and 4 amazing holes in West Hills, then no one is going to complain.
