ELMIRA, N.Y. (WENY) -- The Mark Twain Golf Course is going to be getting cart paths throughout the entire course. As of right now, only some of the 18 holes on the course have a paved road for golfers to drive their karts on. The City of Elmira, which owns the course, is currently allotting around $35,000 out of the city's capital budget for the project. Right now, you can't take golf carts out on the course if it's soaked. With this new upgrade, it'll change that. Elmira City Manager, Mike Collins, believes this new cart path will help bring some more money to the course.   

"I think that we've lost several rounds of golf over the past few years, especially last year," said Collins. "I just think it would be extremely beneficial to the public, to the members up there, as well as to the city of Elmira."

Collins went on to say their goal is to have all the kart paths completed during the 2019 season.
