The City of Windsor is announcing changes to Roseland Golf Club Limited.

The mandatory dissolution of Roseland is in accordance with changes to provincial legislation.

Section 2.1 of the Corporations Act (the Act) requires all social companies covered by the Act to be dissolved by Oct. 19, 2026. This requirement applies to Roseland Golf Club Limited, of which the Corporation of the City of Windsor is sole shareholder.

In response to the new provincial requirement, city council approved moving forward with processes to dissolve the activities of the board to meet the October 2026 legislative deadline. The board will continue to operate until that time.

Roseland Golf Club Limited will be officially dissolved by Oct. 18, 2026. Effective that same date, oversight of Roseland Golf Club and Little River Golf Course will continue under the City’s Community Services Division with direction and funding provided by City Council. Also effective October 18, 2026, staff at Roseland Golf Club and Little River Golf Course will become employees of the Corporation of the City of Windsor.

“In moving forward with this decision, the city is following provincial requirements to continue seamless operations at Roseland Golf Club, maintain transparency, and ensure the long-term success of our award-winning golf course. Established in 1926, and celebrating its milestone 100^th anniversary next year, the unique site is Canada’s only municipal Donald Ross Golf Course,” said mayor Drew Dilkens.

City officials say they are committed to making this transition smooth and ensuring guests will continue to enjoy a fully functional recreation facility at Roseland, which includes an 18-hole championship Donald Ross golf course and a 9-hole par 3 course, as well as the Little River Golf Course site.

“On behalf of the Roseland Board of Directors, I look forward to working with Council, Community Services, and the City of Windsor on this seamless transition of operational oversight at Windsor’s golfing gem — the Roseland Golf Club, along with the Little River Golf Course,” said Ward 8 Councillor Gary Kaschak, Chair of Roseland Board of Directors.

All services, amenities, and experiences at Roseland Golf Club and Little River Golf Course will continue uninterrupted.
