Recommended Action
Council adopt the resolution.
Body
SUMMARY
During the past year, staff has reviewed the status of the golf course operations, the existing market, and current trends. Following the review, it was determined that changes in golf course operations and upgrades to facilities were necessary to provide the public with a quality golf course while remaining profitable. It would, however, take additional analysis to determine the specific changes necessary and to identify funding sources to pay for such changes. In the interim (i.e. during the time needed for additional analysis), staff determined that a temporary golf course management company would be needed to maintain the course and keep it operational: the current management company would stop managing the course on November 1, 2016. A tentative management agreement has been negotiated with Touchstone Golf, LLC, and that agreement is the subject of this action.
