Golf course plans cart replacements and flags possible irrigation overhaul
Summary
Staff said the golf course will replace 80 carts for a net $300,000 cost (lease ~ $60,000/year) and is planning long‑range capital work, including irrigation system decisions that may affect the course's repayment plan to the city.
Heidi presented equipment requests from the golf fund and explained that Tyler (golf manager) plans cart trades that result in a net cost of about $300,000; a lease payment would be roughly $60,000 annually and Tyler intends to recover that through fee increases. "He’s looking at a fee increase to cover the cost of the lease," Heidi said.
Staff also noted a likely future need to rework the course irrigation system. Council members and staff agreed the golf fund operates independently and has been moving toward a self‑sustaining capital plan; Heidi said the golf fund is projected to end fiscal 2027 with a modest cash balance after planned replacements.
