Trump Ferry Point Golf Course License Was Wrongfully Terminated by the City—License Agreement Required Development and Operation of a "First Class, Tournament Quality Daily Fee Golf Course"—It Did Not Require That Licensee Attract Such Tournament
This decision involved the petitioner's challenge to the respondent City's decision to terminate the petitioner's license to operate the Trump Golf Links at Ferry Point Park in the Bronx. The facility "includes an 18‑hole golf course, driving range, clubhouse and ancillary facilities." The license agreement had been entered into on Jan. 21, 2012.
