Discussion on City Park Nine Renovation
Project Manager Leslie Beckmann and Architect Dave Lingle gave the Board an
update on the project. They reviewed the completion schedule of February
22, 1988, which we might not make, due to inclement weather. The project
is approximately 45 percent completed dollar wise and is anticipated to be
75 percent complete dollar wise at the end of January. Dave Lingle gave a
review of color schemes for the clubhouse. Discussion followed on use of
old pine and wainscoting and it will be retained and used as part of the
remodeling. It was noted that Golf Course Superintendent Dave Sadler and
his staff have worked very hard coordinating with the contractor in
resolving problems and insuring the remodeling went quite smoothly. It was
recommended by the Board that Dave Sadler be recognized for his hard work
in working with the contractors.
City Park Nine Concession
Discussion was raised regarding the Women's Association usage of the
kitchen as they had done in the past. The biggest objection or concern of
the association was their possible inability to use the kitchen as in the
past for their women's day luncheon and it was noted that the Board had
authorized the Golf Pro Jim Greer to have control of the concession and he
had asked Derek Cordova, Collindale Concessionaire, to give him a hand in
planning the concessions for 1988. It was noted that Derek and Jim will
meet with the Women's Association to hopefully work out an amicable

The Board then went into an executive session to discuss golf course
liability. Our guests did leave at this time. Dick Zubradt moved that we
go into the executive session, seconded by Dan Preble. Jerry P. Brown had
prepared a confidential report to the Golf Board members from the City
Attorney's office relating to liability issues on golf courses. Several
items were discussed in length. The possibility of having to build a fence
along Horsetooth Road to protect the general public from flying golf balls
from Fairway 1 and the driving range on South Lemay. Jerry recommended
that we review this material and we will open this for further discussion
at the next Golf Board meeting. The executive session ended on a motion by
Dick Zubradt, seconded by Dan Preble.
Board Members and Staff Comments and Reports
Jerry P. Brown brought the Board up-to-date on the year just ended. He
noted that we made 108% of operating expenses so we did make a little bit
of money for golf in Fort Collins. General feelings were hats off to our
Golf superintendents and Golf Pros for making golf a pleasant experience in
Fort Collins.

Wilson, at 9:03 p.m.
