The Boca Raton City Council meeting on July 15, 2025, highlighted significant concerns from residents living near the city's public golf course. One resident, who lives on the Fifteenth Fairway, expressed frustration over the increasing number of golf balls landing in residential areas since the course became public.

The resident reported frequent incidents of golf balls hitting their home, including the roof, windows, and even causing damage to their car parked in the driveway. This situation raises concerns about personal safety for both adults and children in the neighborhood, as well as potential liability issues for the city due to these incidents.

The discussion underscored the need for the city to address the risks associated with the public golf course and its impact on nearby residents. The council is expected to consider measures to mitigate these issues, ensuring the safety and well-being of the community while balancing the use of public recreational spaces.

As the city moves forward, residents are hopeful for solutions that will protect their homes and enhance the enjoyment of the golf course for all.
