One of the functions of the 's to J?ime ations regarding annual fees and charges at City-owned golf cctio 3Se Code states,that the Golf Board's recommendation in this regard is to be made to the City Council. However, in 1997, the City Council amended the City Code to authorize the City Manager to establish these kinds of fees. Therefore, it is appropriate to amend the functions of the Golf Board so that the Golf Board's recommendation regarding fees is forwarded to the City Manager rather than the City Council. This Ordinance would accomplish that change.
