TO: Mayor Thomas J. Weisner
FROM: Jeff Schmidt, PGA Golf Operations Manager
DATE: February 24, 2015
SUBJECT:
Resolution Authorizing the Execution of a Contract to Hire a Contractual Golf Professional
PURPOSE:
To obtain City Council approval to hire a Contractual Golf Professional to assist the PGA Golf Operations Manager at city golf courses for the 2015 golf season at a monthly rate of $3,500.00.
BACKGROUND:
To reduce golf operations expenses the City eliminated the Assistant Golf Professional position in 2011. The City owns and operates two golf courses that are open to the public 7-days a week. To fill the void of the Assistant Golf Pro position to properly oversee golf staff and day-to-day operations the City has been contracting this work since 2011 for the golf season (9 months), March through November and in 2014 spent $31,500.00. This operational change from a full-time city employee to a contractual employee has resulted in the City saving approximately $58,000.00 in 2014.
DISCUSSION:
Due to the favorable outcome experienced by the services provided by Casey Stanutz in 2014, I am recommending to rehire him for the 2015 golf season (9 months), March through November at the same monthly cost as last year with no increase at $3,500.00 per month. There are funds appropriated in the 2015 Golf Course budgets for this expenditure in account numbers 550-4442-451.32-82 and 550-4443-451.32-82.
IMPACT STATEMENT:
N/A
RECOMMENDATIONS:
That the City Council authorizes the hire of Casey Stanutz for Contractual Golf Professional services from March 25th - November 30th, 2015 at $3,500.00 per month.
