30 | Commissioner Schmitz: "I think we can, I mean I have my opinion on these things, and it's certainly my opinion, and until we get a representative from the City to explain this to us, then it's all speculation on our part. I think this is a City condition. The structure is that there's a representative under Park and Rec, that the Park and Rec Direction be should be here or his designee, we would prefer that it would be somebody that's a hands on in charge of the Golf Course, a Golf Pro or Golf Manager, whether it be Kemper or whoever it may be, that's what we'd prefer to have. In their absence, if they've made that policy decision for whatever reason that Kemper's not going to be here, then the City has a responsibility to have a member of their staff here so we can accept these things. If we're going to do all of this in paper, then it's going to be a very labor intensive, I don't know that exactly where and with the new Administration in the City, if they were part of this policy change or not, but I would like to hear their side. I think that'a reasonable request. I guess at this point, we're going to have to put that in writing. I would just like to have somebody here." Commissioner Gammell: "I think a lot of questions we've had have been cleared up at the meetings." Commissioner Gaul: "Why don't we make a motion?' Commissioner Schmitz: "My motion would be to request to the City that we have a representative from the City, or preferably a Golf Manager here, it's their prerogative, I guess, if they don't want to have a Golf Manager, if they want to send someone from Park and Rec here, somebody with reasonable knowledge of what we're doing, so that's my motion." Commissoner Gaul: "I second." Chair Sullwold: "Any further discussion? Ok, it's been moved and seconded that we make a formal written request to the City that we have a representative here, preferably from golf management, but, if not from golf management, then from the City's Park and Rec Dept, or Rec and Park Dept to participate in our Golf Commission meetings on a regular basis. Commissioner Schmitz: "Which is what they do with every other commission in the City. They have somebody from the City staff." The motion passed unanimously. Chair Sullwold: "Ok, do you want me to write a letter to the City Manager and copy the Council?" [Unanimous assent.] Chair Sullwold: "Ok, anything else on John Vest's report?" Commissioner Gammell: "I just wanted to say that on Sales and Marketing, I did talk to him, which I will do before we have a meeting, and that the particularly good thing that's happened is this 10 cart play pass, and he's very happy with the results of that." Chair Sullwold: "So that gives 10 rounds with carts for $280 for residents and $320 for non- residents." Commissioner Gammell: "Right, and $100 for seniors and $130 for non- resident seniors. And he said they're using carts when they don't have to so they're using the card up faster." 3 Golf Commission Minutes Wednesday, January 19, 2011 |
