Committee backs placing Yamaha golf‑cart lease and fleet expansion on consent agenda
Summary
Staff recommended a five‑year lease to expand the municipal golf‑cart fleet from 22 to 26 units, reporting a favorable five‑year financial analysis and recommending continuance with Yamaha for local maintenance support.
The committee heard a request to authorize a five‑year lease for additional golf carts and to expand the fleet from 22 to 26 units. Staff said the district evaluated lease versus purchase and lithium versus acid batteries and determined a five‑year lease similar to existing carts is the best option at this time.
"We have a great relationship with Yamaha. They have the local representation as far as maintenance," the presenter said, and noted the district’s five‑year financial analysis shows more than $300,000 net income over the lease term. Staff recommended placing the item on the consent agenda pending committee support and said the full financial impact is included in the packet. No formal vote took place at the meeting; committee members indicated support to move the item to consent.
