City hires irrigation designer for Rifle Creek Golf Course; upgrades planned

May 20, 2026

Council awarded $37,710 to Irrigation Technologies for design work to replace and upgrade the aging Rifle Creek Golf Course irrigation system, including pump‑house electrical updates and future construction coordination.

The full story

Staff and golf‑course leadership described a long‑dated irrigation system that dates to the 1970s on the front side with later additions; the pump houses are aging and leaking, and the city budgeted $30,000 for design this year. After procurement and reference checks, staff recommended Irrigation Technologies, a certified irrigation designer and golf‑course irrigation auditor, for design services and alternates. Justin (golf staff) and project staff explained the approach and alternates for construction support and electrical updates.
