,4 <br />MEMORANDUM <br />TO: All Park Board Members <br />FROM: Marty Asleson <br />DATE: October 3, 1991 <br />SUBJECT: Golf Course Agenda Item <br />One of the recurrent topics of discussion at the Comprehensive <br />Parks and Recreation Planning Committee meetings is that of looking <br />into the possibility of a Municipal Golf Course. There has been <br />much in the news lately concerning municipalities that have forged <br />forward, built the golf course facilities and have had substantial <br />returns on their money. <br />In these times of economic stress, we as staff are searching for <br />ways to even maintain status quo. Thus, staff placed the <br />feasibility market analysis money in the proposed 1992 budget to <br />start the process. These monies were cut out, not because it was a <br />bad idea, but because of lack of funds. <br />Please find enclosed a copy of the National Golf Federation's <br />Market Demand Study Overview and Feasibility Study Overview, and <br />cost break down. We are proposing that the Park Board use dedicated <br />dollars to run this study. <br />Also find enclosed some of the recent articles that have surfaced <br />in the newspapers. I will bring as much additional information as <br />I have to the meeting. <br />
