GolfCommission | 2007-02-11 | 2 | review of the operations, revenue, budget, policies and procedures for the Golf Department. The committee needs to develop an RFP as soon as possible and get it out to consultants. The process takes about 30 days from the date it is sent out to the date it is returned. The RFP's will be sent out to consultants, advertisements will be placed in publications and the RFP will be accessible on the City of Alameda's web site. Once the proposals are received the committee will review them. The contract will not need City Council approval if it is under $75,000. The Golf Commissioners would like to have some input and discussion with the consultant. The Complex has various associate clubs that would also need to be interviewed during the review. The City Manager stated that the key elements of the review will include the operations and maintenance, policies and practices, staffing levels, environmental comparisons (looking at other municipal operations and what they do differently) and capital improvements. Once the recommendations are received it is an ongoing process to put the suggestions into reality. The consensus amongst the Golf Commission is that the policy and fee changes need to go into effect soon to capitalize on the peak golf season. The City Manager stated that she did not see a problem with moving on the changes now and not waiting until the completion of the operational review, although some additional changes may be necessary after the review is completed. The overall philosophy is that the Earl Fry Course is the premium course and the rate proposal is designed to shift some of the pass and discounted fee play to the Jack Clark Course. Chair Wood asked for a motion on the proposed fee changes shown on the following page: Chuck Corica Golf Complex Page 2 Revised 3/5/07 Golf Commission Minutes | GolfCommission/2007-02-11.pdf |
