In recent months, nearly two dozen firms have expressed an interest in managing the municipal golf course in Lynn, Massachusetts. Much to the city’s surprise, however, only one actually submitted a bid.
A firm led by Stephen Murphy, the superintendent of Gannon Municipal Golf Course, has made what amounts to a take-it-or-leave-it offer: He’s willing to pay the city $2.1 million for a five-year lease.
If his offer isn’t accepted, according to the Daily Item, next year the 18-hole, Wayne Stiles-designed golf course will be operated by Lynn’ s public works department.
