Groveland Park Building – Golf Course Clubhouse Review
The proposed Groveland Park Building is a masonry building with a total square footage
of 1217 sq. ft. and a total estimated cost of $330,300.
The existing Golf Course Clubhouse was constructed in 1995. It is a “stick” constructed
building with a total square footage of 1380 sq. ft. The total cost to construct Golf
Course Clubhouse including construction, inspection, and engineering was $231,657.98
in 1995. The ENR Construction Cost Index from July 1995 was 5484. As of July 25,
2005, the ENR CCI is 7422. Therefore, to convert a project cost from July 1995 to July
2005, the 1995 cost should be multiplied by 1.3534. Doing this the current estimated cost
to construct the Golf Course Clubhouse is $313,525.91

Cost per sq. ft. $271.41 $227.19
The estimated cost to move the Golf Course Clubhouse is $45,000 to $50,000.
There would addition cost associated with the set up of the Clubhouse on a new site.
These include: removal of any existing building (if needed) utility work, foundation
construction, removal and replacement of interior surfaces. The total estimated cost could
be around $100,000.
Two possible re-locations sites would be Groveland Park and Random Park. The Random
Park building is scheduled for replacement in 2013.
Assuming that both the existing Groveland and Random Park buildings were in the same
condition and were both scheduled for replacement at this time, the Random Park
building would make a much better choice for replacement with the Golf Course
Clubhouse.
The Random Park building is used exclusively for classroom style and similar type
activities. Conversely, the Groveland Park building is used for social gatherings during
the spring and summer months and as a warming house in the winter. A stick building
such as the Golf Course Clubhouse would be subjected to far greater wear and abuse at
the Groveland site versus the Random site. This would certainly affect its longevity.
