The City of Miami, through the Department of Parks, Recreation

close of the summer season (October 30 - November 30, 1989), at
the Melreese and Miami Springs Golf Courses. Starting times must
be scheduled forty-eight (48) hours in advance for weekday use,
and after 1 p.m. on weekends and holidays, and an electric golf
cart is required. Additionally, the City will require that each
card be signed by the purchaser and be non -transferable. This
program introduces many new golfers to the City Qf Miami GaIg
Courses and is a definite advantage to the City.
