Does new Bergen-Hudson Course Make Financial Sense?

From NorthJersey.com, Public golf course on landfill called money pit:

A proposed 18-hole public golf course atop North Arlington and Kearny landfills would cost $30 million to $40 million to complete and could not pay for itself, according to a 124-page report released by the National Golf Foundation.

That cost also could prove to be too high for the state and counties to make up the difference, given their dire budget situations. The state aid would be needed to clean up portions of the landfill unrelated to golf.
