Annual Budget and Work Plan for '93-'94: Superintendent Denham presented the Committee with his preliminary Capital Improvements and Equipment list for consideration. This item will be listed on the agenda for the May meeting. 2. Water System Improvements, Golf Course: After some discussion about the golf course reserve fund and benefits to the City of disconnecting the golf course, the consensus was that golf course irrigation was top priority and should be addressed as soon as possible. This will be discussed further at the May meeting. OLD BUSINESS: 1. Cart Storage: ********** The City Administrator presented a request for proposals form for Committee consideration. After discussion on the dynamics of the proposal, Frank Brown moved to recommend to the City Council to pursue the use of the proposal from the Administrator and accept bids from developers. Jeff Goodman seconded and the motion carried unanimously. 2. #15 Tee: The discussion ended saying that the property should be surveyed after the snow is melted to determine whether the old tee is on parks or golf course property the decide on a course of action. 3. Restaurant Concession Contract: ********* The Committee extended a welcome to Mary Clemmer as the new concessionaire. Mary then discussed some areas of the kitchen that needed improvement. Among those were 1) a walk-in cooler 2) stainless steel table, wash basin and shelving 3) a stand alone freezer. The walk-in cooler was determined to be a must before the restaurant could open. The prep table and shelving would also be necessary. She also discussed a power line from Lick Creek Road to the snack shack at a cost of $900.00. Frank Brown moved to recommend to the City Council to accept the restaurant concession contract as amended to include provisions that provide for the purchase of a walk-in cooler for $3500.00 and the prep table, wash basin and shelving for $1200.00 to be purchased be Mary Clemmer and bought back by the City on a 5 year lease purchase agreement. Jeff Goodman seconded and the motion carried unanimously. OTHER BUSINESS: 1. Tractor: The Committee was informed that John Deere was the low bid and will be the tractor to be purchased. 2. Dance Floor: ********** The Committee discussed the dance floor that was installed in the clubhouse. They decided that it was not built as originally represented. The Committee wanted to bring to the attention of the City Council that the floor installed was not built to specifications as represented to the Committee members. It is not recessed into the carpet so it could be covered with carpet and unnoticeable until used. Jeff Goodman moved and Frank Brown seconded to recommend to the City Council that the dance floor be modified to meet expectations reflected to Committee members or removed entirely. The vote was unanimous. With no further business, the meeting adjourned at 9:00 p.m. Respectfully Submitted, te244:::::7 Ted Whiteman, Vice -Chairman RESTAURANT MANAGEMENT AGREEMENT This Agreement is made April 8, 1993, by and between the City of McCall, Idaho ("City") and Clubhouse, Inc., an Idaho business corporation, Mary E. Clemmer, President, ("Manager") for and in consideration of the mutual promises in this Agreement. Recitals 1. City owns a golf course located on the easterly side of the City, on which there is a clubhouse containing a restaurant and bar facility ("Restaurant"). As this is a licensed facility under the alcoholic beverage control laws, Manager needs to take care to control illegal activities. 2. City desires to obtain the services of a manager for the Restaurant who has extensive actual experience in managing and operating restaurants and lounges, and in that fashion to be relieved of the day to day responsibilities of management, which are beyond the expertise of City's employees. 3. Manager's principal officer, Mary E. Clemmer, is an experienced manager and operator of such facilities, and has expressed an interest in managing Restaurant, but does not wish to abandon her other business interests such as would be necessary for her to become an employee. 4. This agreement is therefore entered into for Manager to assume all responsibility for the operations of Restaurant during 1993. 5. The proposal which led to this Agreement was submitted by Mary E. Clemmer as an individual, but she has since formed a corporation with her brother to operate the restaurant; nevertheless, she understands that having offered to contract as an individual, she will remain personally liable to the City.

Manager accepts the Restaurant in its present condition, after complete inspection of the same, except that certain changes will be made as follows: RESTAURANT MANAGEMENT AGREEMENT, April 8, 1993 page 4 (incorporating advice of Golf Advisory Committee from its meeting of April 7, 1993) a. Manager will at its cost and for its ownership obtain a free-standing freezer. b.

City will reimburse Manager the actual as -installed cost to Manager of the walk-in refrigerator, the food preparation area, the food preparation sink, and the hand washing sink, but not to exceed in the aggregate the sum of $7,500. Such reimbursement will be at the rate of 20% of such cost per annum, without interest, title to pass to the City upon payment of the fifth such installment. e.

Clemmer, as its President and as Guarantor of corporation's obligations to City ATTEST: Arthur J. Schmidt City Clerk City of McCall by: Mayor Pro-tem RESTAURANT MANAGEMENT AGREEMENT, April 8, 1993 (incorporating advice of Golf Advisory Committee from its meeting of April 7, 1993) page 7 March 15, 1993 TO: Frank Brown FROM: City Administrator You asked that I think about the process of providing golf cart storage for 1993 and thereafter on the property at the corner of Reedy and Fairway that the city acquired for this purpose several years ago. Please recall: 1. A special use permit was granted in May 1992, but requires that the design of the building(s) constructed be returned to the Planning and Zoning Commission for approval. 2. There are no funds budgeted in the golf fund for design or construction of cart storage facilities. 3. The City Council has scheduled the sale of the old golf clubhouse site and the use of the property for cart storage in 1993 appears unlikely. 4. Limitations may exist on the Golf Fund due to the outstanding bond issue on the Golf Clubhouse. Proposal: As we discussed, in light of the above facts, it is my view that the city should prepare a request for proposals to lease the entire cart storage site to a person or persons who would design, build, and then rent golf cart storage facilities. The RFP should request an annual lease rate, a lease term, and should specify the types and kinds of storage that is desired. A site plan and phasing of the project should be permitted. By way of comparison, the City Airport leases land for 20 years with renewal options up to 40 years to allow for amortization of the private hangars constructed on the property. Annual cost of living adjustments are included to ensure that the lease keeps pace with inflation. The city controls color and a variety of other details. This would be somewhat different in that I would recommend that you not lease small parcels, but lease the entire parcel to a single operator. It seems to me that the city benefits in that we are out of the cart storage business but retain some control,over it. It provides a steady income stream to the golf fund, not dependent on the number of carts stored. We will no longer be in a position to set storage rental fees and the market will dictate those rates. I do not know if there would be any response to such an RFP, but given the circumstances, cannot imagine another alternative that would accomplish the goal. DRAFT/ PROPOSAL SCOPE OF WORK The City of McCall is soliciting proposals for persons to lease the entire 1 acre site, map attached, to construct golf cart storage facilities on the property. the lessee would then rent these facilities to the public. The city would agree to a management agreement with the Golf Pro, another city contractor, for the management and operation of the facilities. The City has surveyed the market and it appears that three types of storage would be required, outdoor covered storage, inside common area (shared) storage, and private and secure units for one cart accessible only to the renter. A11 types of storage require access by each cart to electrical service for recharging the carts batteries. It is expected that each of these services would be competitively priced. The proponent will construct, within 1 year of execution of a lease, the first phase of the project. The development of other phases will be negotiated with the city and will be determined by market conditions. The proponent will construct, insure, manage, maintain, pay relevant utility charges to the city, and otherwise operate the facility without interference by the city. The proponent will have the absolute right to set rental charges for the facilities constructed. The design of the buildings must be approved by the City Planning and Zoning Commission. This is the condition of a special use permit issued for this use on the property and is intended to protect the adjoining residential areas from unsightly and poor quality development. The city will undertake no work in support of the project, either by use of city labor and equipment or by discounting utility fees. This project is intended to provide the land for a privately operated facility and all costs relevant to a private development shall be the responsibility of the proponent. This would include electrical, water and sewer connection fees and monthly service charges and building permit fees. Any Merchantable timber removed from the property will be sold and the proceeds credited to the City's Golf Fund. DRAFT/PROPOSAL PACKET CART STORAGE Proponent I propose to lease the Golf cart storage site for a period of years, with a first year lease of $ This proposal would provide at lease three types of storage, private and secure units which will rent for $ per ;. common area indoor storage which will rent for $ per ; and outside covered storage which will rent for $ per The following materials are attached which are a part of this proposal: A site plan of the property with all proposed development marked thereon, including phasing of development if desired. Landscaping, paving, pavement marking, fencing and security devices, lighting and other amenities should be included. A letter from a financial institution indicating your financial ability to undertake this project. A grading plan for the property. A proposed (draft) design of the buildings to be constructed. A schedule for completion of the first buildings on the property. Security for the city in the amount of 5% of the proposed lease amount either in cash, certified check or a bid bond. By signing this proposal, I hereby certify that I will enter good faith negotiations with the city to lease from the city the property as described in the proposal packet and according to the terms and conditions outlined in this proposal. DRAFT/3-15-93 REQUEST FOR PROPOSALS The City of McCall is requesting proposals for the lease of approximately 1 Acre of property at the intersection of Reedy and Fairway Dr. adjacent to Clements St. for the purpose of constructing golf cart storage facilities on the property and renting such facilities to the public. All proposals will meet development standards for landscaping, paving parking areas, and design requirements set out by the city. Proposals will be submitted on forms provided by the city which may be obtained by contacting the office of the Clerk, McCall City Hall, Box 1065, McCall, Idaho 83638, (208)634-7142. Proposals will be accepted until 5 p.m. on 1993. Proposals will be evaluated on the best financial return to the city, the quality of the proposal, the proposed design of the facilities, and the financial ability of the proponent. The City may reject any or all proposals and may select the proposal which is in the best interest of the city.
