DATE
ANAL YSIS:
Based on the recommendations of the Golf Course Ad Hoc Committee and the Golf Advisory Board the
Administration sought Commission approval to issue Requests For Qualifications seeking the professional
services of golf course and clubhouse architects to redesign or renovate the Bayshore/Par 3 and Normandy
Shores golf courses, the clubhouses and related facilities.
These tasks were initiated on October 21, 1997, with the execution of an agreement with the golf course
architectural firm of Arthur Hills and Associates, and the issuance of a Request For Qualifications for Golf
Course Clubhouse Architects on December 3, 1997.
The next step in this process is to implement Phase I of the agreement with Arthur Hills and Associates.
Phase I is the Consultation, Planning, and Conceptual Design phase. In this phase the architect will conduct
a comprehensive analysis of existing conditions at each course and develop a minimum of two (2) conceptual
design alternatives for each golf course. The conceptual designs will clearly indicate the locations of all tees,
greens, fairway boundaries, driving range, putting/chipping green, and all other pertinent information
necessary for the City to determine the best and most cost effective solutions available for improving the golf
courses. Each conceptual design will include cost estimates for the proposed option.
The estimated cost to accomplish Phase I of the Arthur Hills and Associates work is approximately $125,000.
This includes the negotiated fee of $75,000 for the architectural services, cost of surveying and related
reimbursable expenses. The balance will be held in contingency for future work, if necessary. The funding
to accomplish this task will be the reallocated balances remaining from projects completed and closed out
in the Parks and Recreation Beautification Bond Fund 366.
Additionally, the Request for Qualifications seeking golf clubhouse architects, (No. 18-97/98) was issued
on December 5, 1997, and will be opened on January 30, 1998. Following the opening of responses the
evaluation and selection procedures will be implemented.
CONCLUSION:
The approval of the attached Resolution will enable the City to implement Phase I of the GolfCourse(s)
Renovation Program and continue the plan developed to improve and upgrade the Bayshore, Normandy
Shores, and Par 3 golf courses.
