The following questions were posed by a Council Member in preparation for the item B1,
Request for Proposals for the Operation and /or Maintenance of Laguna Lake Golf Course.
1. What does the Parks and Recreation Element say about the Laguna Lake Golf Course?
And how out of date is that Plan?
The City's Parks and Recreation Element was adopted in April 2001. It is a goal of the Parks
and Recreation Commission that sufficient funds be made available in the 2015 -17 Financial
Plan to update this Element. The Element acknowledges the Course and an existing
facility. The Course acreage is used in the City's General Plan as part of our parkland acreage
calculations.
2. When did the Laguna Lake Golf Course return to being part of the General Fund?
As part of the strategic budget direction for the 2011 -13 Financial Plan Council determined that
Laguna Lake Golf Course should be a part of the General Fund as that is consistent with
other recreational program fiscal policy. The discussion on this topic is found on page 132 -14 of
this Agenda Report

3. What happened with Dairy Creek Golf Course's concessionaire?
The County of San Luis Obispo manages three -18 hole golf courses in the County including
Dairy Creek. County staff (which includes a Golf Course manager for these operations)
performs all maintenance activities at these courses and contracts out the programming. As
reported in the newspaper, the Dairy Creek the concessionaire gave one day's notice to the
County and self - terminated the contract. The County provided workers from other facilities to
cover course program operations until a new concession agreement could be entered into. In
discussions with County staff, due to its size and nature of operations, concessionaires at many
of its major recreational facilities has been the appropriate model for the County.
