CityCouncil | 2011-04-12 | 6 | Manager stated Council does not have to make a decision on the term sheet tonight; tonight, Council needs to provide direction on whether to go forward with 36 holes. Vice Mayor Bonta stated AJGA might want to explore tweaking the term sheet; the staff report notes the term sheet requires an operator agreement, which has not been agreed upon yet. The Acting City Manager stated the Leased Facilities section of the term sheet proposes that the Norma Arnerich Teaching Center and driving range practice stalls would be available for the Alameda Junior Golf Academy, which would be run by the new operator; however, AJGA would need to secure someone to maintain the Mif Albright Course. Mayor Gilmore stated Council would assume that all interested entities would have a voice. The Recreation and Park Director stated bringing the term sheet back after determining the location makes sense. Vice Mayor Bonta inquired how long it would take to craft a lease after a term sheet is agreed upon. The Acting City Manager responded not long; stated Mr. Van Winkle has worked on a model. Mayor Gilmore inquired whether the term sheet would come back for Council discussion after the exploration phase, to which Councilmember Johnson responded in the affirmative. Councilmember deHaan inquired how long the exploration phase would be, to which Mayor Gilmore responded sixty days. Councilmember Tam stated sixty days has been requested. Vice Mayor Bonta inquired what Council wants as a deliverable. Mayor Gilmore responded that she would like a staff report regarding what the consensus would be and what the 45 holes would look like in order to have a meaningful, public discussion, and see what the proposed ball fields would look like. Councilmember Tam stated that she would like to have all of tonight's questions answered, in addition to those that have been emailed; she would like to know whether stating 14.4 acres can be shoe horned into 8 acres is factual and should be considered and how issues regarding the Kemper Sports proposal would dovetail with the Golf Course configuration in terms of the operation.
