Why Harbor Shores
54% of the Benton Harbor population is below the poverty line
24%of the population left Benton Harbor in the last 15 years
If the City of BentonHarbor had
the level of economic developmentthat the City of St Joseph enjoys
there would be no need for this projectThe primemotivation to create Harbor Shores
is to return BentonHarbor
to the level of economic prosperity it enjoyed prior to
manufacturingsgradual exodus
out of the State of Michigan

Why HarborShores
Jean Mock Park is owned by the City of Benton Harbor
For years residents have directed the city commission
to use the park to create jobs while improving the
facilitys access and recreational opportunities
When all is said and done Jean Mock Park will be
expanded by more than 47 acres with over $1000000in improvementsand ongoing financial resources
dedicated to the City and the Park That by itself makes
Harbor Shores worthwhile project but the tax base
and employment created for future
generations makes this once in
lifetime opportunityPete Mitchell

Why Jack Nicklaus
Ordinarygolf courses today are
struggling financially To be viable
course must attract golfers from
outside the immediate vicinity
Mr Nicklaus puts his signature on only
the very best courses and they must havedistinctive elements Harbor Shores made it
clear the development had to be in the
Benton Harbor city limits Mr Nicklaus saw
this location with holes in and around Lake
Michigan as meeting his stringent Jack

What if we had no golf
Regrettably LR would have absolutely no interest in
undertaking project in Benton Harbor were it not
for construction of Jack Nicklaus Signature Golf
Course And not just Signature course but one
with the type of golf holes and view appeal that
makesdevelopment
of thetype
wepropose
competitive with other similarprojects
Deviation away from these truly unique golf course
elements will exponentially erode the likely success
of Harbor Shores and with it
our interest in the project

Golf is CommunityRequest
There has been lot of confusion over the Jean Kiock
Park use but the bottom line is the Harbor Shores
development will create three public golf holes in and
around the current parking lot of Jean Mock Park
utilizing 22 acres and adding 47 acres of additional
park areas along the Paw Paw River as permanent parkspace Fees from each round of golf will be used to
help maintainand operate the park and jobs for the
residents will be created
