Brown reported that an amount up to $63,000 has been made available from other city sources for the purchase of up to thirty (30) golf carts. The program has been developed to purchase and maintain these carts and to repay the borrowed funds at a cost of $26,000 per year. It is anticipated that bids can be received and the carts purchased by approximately July 1. b. Lee Hill, the leasing contractor, has offered to temporarily rent carts until the new ones are received at a cost of $5 per cart per day. The staff will investigate this proposal further and take appropriate action. 2. Frank Hummel reported on his architectural study of the Pineridge site. He recommends that the golf course at this site be seriously considered. Estimated cost of this new course is approximately $1,900,000, includ- ing $250,000 for water rights. Copies of Mr. Hummel's report will be distributed to staff, board members, and City Council members. Jim Mitchell will request a meeting with the City Council at a regular session in June to review the report. • 3. Jerry P. Brown reviewed the preliminary figures for the 1981 budget. H. R. Phillips mentioned that, because of the poor weather, we may have difficulty generating enough income this year to balance the 1980 budget. 4. The Board again discussed the use of higher fees for out-of-town residents at the courses. A vote was taken and there was unanimous agreement that higher fees should be considered.
