"I'he meeting was called to order at 5:00 p.m. at the Oso Beach club house by chairman Creed Coffee. All members and
golf course representatives were present except Clifton Woodson, Lou Stuart, and Red Taylor.
Cefc Valenzuela made a motion we accept the minutes of the last meeting as written. Barbara Weiser seconded the
motion. The motion passed.
Mr. Reuwsaat gave the committee an update on golf course projects: .
1. The final draft on Request for Proposals on new golf course construction is being sent to the City Manager.
2. A request for the cost to stripe the golf course parking lots has been made to the 'hraffic Engineering Dept.
3. Mlle on course rest rooms at Gabe Lozano will be hooked into the city sewer system.
4. The reclassification of golf course personnel is now complete.
5. Staff is getting estimates on dredging the pond at Oso's #13 and increasing the size of the pipe line bringing
effluent water'into the pond. They will also be repairing the pump at this location.
6. The effluent water used to irrigate the golf course will have to be chlorinated.
7. The 1992 maintenance schedule for the golf courses has been posted. "Ile courses will be fertilized 4 tinges,
aerated 3 times and sprayed for broad leaf 2 times.
8: A "No Solicitation" ordinance for the golf courses is under review.
9. Twenty-five 3"-3'/" mesquite trees are at the Oso Beach course ready for planting.
10. Fifteen new E-Z Go carts should arrive at the Oso Beach course within the next 30 days.
11. Ball washers have been ordered for the Gabe Lozano golf course. -
12. Benches will be placed on every hole at both golf courses.
After considerable discussion, the committee supports the staff perimeter fencing program for the Gabe Lozano golf
course. Some sections of fence along#12 will be repaired. Clearing brush along the fence line and some other locations
to increase visibility of the course and persons on the course will also solve some problems. The staff is also developing
some "No Trespassing" signs.
A.proposal will go before the City Council Oct. 15th to construct cement cart paths on the rest of the holes at both
courses this winter. A source of funding has been located, and the cart surcharge will be used over the next 4-5 years
to retire that loan.
A'rough draft of the golf course survey was shown to the committee. It should be ready to go to each of the golf courses
next month, and it will run for one year. •
No decision has been made on the "corking fee" at this time.
There was discussion of a single rider cart fee. The consensus of the committee was to support the staff
recommendation on a one rider cart fee. That fee would be $7.25 + $1.50 (surcharge) + tax.
Concerns From Members
1. 'Ile rough to the right side of#5 at the Oso is getting too long.
2. Cart paths, particularly #2, #4, #5, #15 & #18 at the Oso Beach course are getting bad. Wood chips will
be used on the cart paths as much as possible.
3. Vehicles going to the maintenance buildings at Oso Beach travel too fast.
4. Mike Reuwsaat usually opens the suggestion boxes.
5. Is there any chance of getting 100 yard markers'? No. Red oleanders have been planted 150 yards from the
greens at Oso Beach.
