GolfCommission | 2016-09-20 | 2 | Marc Logan stated that the finishing process has begun on #1 of the south. The next step is seeding. The game plan is to grass the first four holes over the next month. Holes #15, 16 and 17 are being shaped and should be done by the end of October, which would complete the shaping. Sub grading of the cart path is almost complete. Sod has been installed on slopes that back up to the north course, and has also been installed on #10 and #18. There are 2-1/2 holes left to complete the irrigation. They are hoping to open up by late August of next year. George Kelley stated that they was a Titleist fitting day which had about 40 players come out and try the new equipment. They have rolled out a new junior program which is free on Saturdays, staffed by employees and also assisted by the Alameda High School golf team. Footgolf will be revisited and also the golf boards have been a success. Commissioner Carlson asked about the instructions which are provided prior to using the golf boards and Mr. Kelley stated that they are required to watch a video and sign off prior to using, but also stated that they would make sure that staff is providing proper instructions. Mr. Kelley was asked about the Footgolf and stated that avid golfers have expressed their non interest and they plan to be very sensitive and determine when the best time of day would be appropriate. Mr. Kelley informed the commission that if they are concerned about occurrences, that they should inform Mike Winkenbach or contact the office. They are going to improve the communications between the golf course, the commission and the City in regards to items which include the waterways which we are not allowed to fill. Mr. Logan stated that since the reclaimed water is no longer being used to fill the waterways, natural vegetation has begun to return. Mr. Kelley responded to a question regarding a special golf commission meeting to show the samples they are looking at. Discussion ensued regarding dates in October to hold a special meeting and it was determined that a possible date would be Thursday, October 13 and it was tentatively set at 3:00 pm. 4-B Beautification Program and Junior Golf Club by Mrs. Norma Arnerich None 4-C Golf Complex Restaurant Report, Jim's on the Course Demetrio stated that Tom is continuing to work on the plans and will be returning soon. 5.
