Brokers have been scooping up all the tee times at Los Angeles public courses, and selling those times for profit. Now the City Council is trying to crack down.

The Los Angeles City Council Wednesday approved a motion that seeks to crack down on the illegal booking and reselling of tee times for profit.Council members voted 14-0 to instruct the Department of Recreation and Parks to detail the operation and management of its reservation system for city public golf courses, and any efforts made to stop the illegal activity. The report is expected to include potential fee adjustments to cover costs for upgrading the booking system.

Brokering or advertising tee times for resale or using third-party programs for booking tee times are strictly prohibited, according to city policy.In March, a group of golfers filed a class-action lawsuit alleging the city failed to perform its duties to oversee courses. The suit claims the city has permitted unscrupulous brokers to profit off city courses — and as a result, people who have purchased a player card have not received the benefits of affordable tee times as promised by the city.
