City Golf Board votes to shorten tee-time intervals to 8 minutes starting next season
Summary
The Golf Board voted June 1 to cut tee-time intervals from 10 to 8 minutes beginning next season to expand capacity and ease morning shortages; board members noted the change cannot be implemented mid-season without wiping current reservations and committed to clear member communication.
The city's Golf Board voted on June 1 to shorten tee-time intervals from 10 minutes to 8 minutes beginning next season, a move board members said will add capacity and help relieve complaints about limited morning tee times. Chairman Bartlett led the discussion and framed the change as a way to increase rounds and potential revenue while acknowledging operational challenges.
Board members noted a key technical constraint: the existing tee-time system cannot change intervals mid-season without wiping all current reservations, so the board approved implementing the 8-minute intervals at the start of the next season to avoid disruption. Members agreed to notify members in advance and to revisit the policy if vendor updates make a mid-season transition feasible. The motion to set 8-minute intervals starting next season passed during the meeting.
