EUGENE — The city of Eugene has approved a new disc golf course.

The Eugene Register-Guard reports that the course will be located at the Alton Baker Park, in what officials say is a compromise between disc golf enthusiasts and runners.

The course will be 15 acres, which is smaller than the 22 acres originally proposed. The initial proposal had the disc golf course crossing a jogging trail.

The Oregon Track Club, which helps maintain the trail, was concerned about disc golfers crossing the trail. Backers of the course are happy with the compromise.

City officials plan to seek a vendor to run a pay-to-play course, a solicitation that will likely not take place until early next year.
