- install two (2) new restrooms (one on the Front 9 and another on the Back 9); and
- continue the use of restricted flight balls to temporarily address the safety concerns at the driving range while a new design can be developed.
I further move Council consider a [future] budget revision for a new golf course design consultant to complete revised design concepts; conduct public involvement; apply for necessary rezoning approvals to the Planning and Zoning Commission and Council; and complete technical design and bid documents for the following improvements to the golf course:
- Expand the course to accommodate one or two new holes so not to shorten the overall course length for holes one (1) through three (3);
- expand the driving range to minimize or eliminate safety netting and include driving and short game practice improvements; and
- design additive alternatives for cart path upgrades.

- simultaneously develop concept design options for improving holes 1 through 3 and the driving range/practice tee areas including cost estimates;
- seek public feedback in coordination with the Parks and Recreation Board; and
- return to Council with recommendations for a phased implementation of golf course improvements including associated budge...
