As the City of Virginia Beach considers selling Virginia Beach National Golf Course, golfers say they want more answers before city leaders make a final decision.
Virginia Beach golfers seek answers as proposed sale of Virginia Beach National moves toward public hearingThe city is considering selling Virginia Beach National to Dragas, which has proposed investing millions of dollars to renovate the aging golf course, build a new clubhouse and practice facilities, and develop hundreds of homes around the course while keeping golf as part of the property. On Tuesday night, Dragas hosted a community meeting to answer questions and hear public feedback.
Some golfers are raising concerns about nearby wildlife, including bald eagle nests. “I’ve been trying to reach out for the Center for Conservation Biology to report for the state of Virginia and that’s the beginning step of how you will get a nest protected,” golfer Elisa Trent said. “That’s the first I’ve heard of that, but we certainly will,” Dragas President Helen Dragas said when asked about the bald eagle concerns.
Golfers say they plan to continue voicing their concerns at the Virginia Beach City Council public hearing scheduled for July 7 at 7 p.m. The hearing is expected to be the public’s final opportunity to comment before council members vote on whether to move forward with the proposed sale.
The Supreme Court ruled 5-4 against the Trump administration’s effort to end birthright citizenship for children born in the United States, including those born to undocumented migrants.
Supreme Court rejects Trump's bid to end birthright citizenshipThe decision is a major blow for President Donald Trump, who signed the executive order at the center of the case on the first day of his second term. The White House described the order as part of an effort to “repair the United States immigration system.”
The case centered on the first section of the 14th Amendment, which says all people born or naturalized in the United States and “subject to the jurisdiction thereof” are U.S. citizens.
Chief Justice John Roberts wrote that children born in the U.S. to parents who are unlawfully or temporarily in the country meet the requirements of the 14th Amendment. “Under the Constitution, they are citizens at birth.”
