Item No. 7G <br />Type of Business:CB <br />WK: Work Session; PH: Public Hearing; <br />CA: Consent Agenda; CB: Council Business City of Mounds View Staff Report <br />To: Honorable Mayor and City Council <br />From: David Longville, Golf Course Manager <br />Item Title/Subject: Resolution 5778 Approving an Independent Contract <br />for Golf Lessons <br />Date of Report: 5/23/02 <br /> <br />At the May 20, 2002 Special Meeting of the City Council the Council approved a <br />reorganization of the golf course. This included eliminating the Assistant <br />Clubhouse Manager position and creating a Grounds/Equipment Manager <br />position. In addition, the issue of independent golf lessons was brought up. <br />Council Member Marty indicated that he had received a call from a patron who <br />had some concerns about lessons. <br /> <br />I followed up with the Clubhouse Manager who indicated that during the strike it <br />had been somewhat difficult to arrange for lessons. This was attributed not only <br />to the inconvenience caused by the picketing, but also the honoring of the strike <br />by some of our patrons. Also, with the limited number of staff on board at this <br />time it was more difficult to schedule lessons. With the strike being over and the <br />summer clubhouse positions filled, this will no longer be an issue. The one area <br />we will need some assistance with is our junior group lessons (June –August). <br /> <br />Staff is considering three certified teaching professionals as possible candidates <br />for an independent contract with the City. At the May 28, 2002 Council meeting <br />staff will have the name of the independent contractor. Staff requests that the <br />Council approve of a second independent contact for golf lessons. <br />Compensation will be a 70/30 split as with the other contract. This should take <br />care of our lesson needs for the 2002 season. <br /> <br />Please note that even though junior lessons are from June–August, staff would <br />like to leave the dates of the contract somewhat open in an effort to be able to <br />respond to any requests for lessons that our current staff cannot handle. <br /> <br />Respectfully Submitted, <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />David J. Longville, CGCS <br />
