Issue: Casa Blanca Golf Course, established in 1967, has not undergone a full greens renovation or resurfacing in decades. The current putting surfaces have significantly exceeded their expected lifespan and are experiencing ongoing turf quality and performance issues due to age, heavy play, and environmental stress. As part of our continued effort to maintain safe, playable, and acceptable course conditions for the residents of Webb County and surrounding communities, this project represents the minimum necessary investment to stabilize and improve the greens while the long-term Master Plan and course redesign are under review. The Master Plan process is expected to take approximately 18–24 months before full implementation.
Solution: Installation of approximately 92,000 square feet of TifEagle Bermuda sod across all 18 greens. Soil preparation and installation services for all greens. Work to be performed by CT Fieldscapes, a qualified contractor specializing in golf course construction and turf installation.
Result: Approval of the proposed project to install new sod on all greens at Casa Blanca Golf Course to ensure continued service quality, protect revenue, and support the community until full course renovations are implemented.
