Mayor Dunlap led in the Invocation.
Jeffrey Snyder, City Manager presented information on a request for the City Council to
consider the replacement of the 25 irrigation satellites controller boxes for the irrigation
system at an estimated cost of $83,767.50. These controller boxes are reaching the end
of their life and have been repaired to a point they cannot be worked on or parts are hard
to find.
The City owns the Golf Course property and the entire building that includes the Country
Club and Civic Center facilities. There is a management agreement between the City
and the Country Club to run the daily operations on behalf of the City. A few years back,
the City started subsidizing the Golf Course operations annually in the amount of $25,000
to help with maintenance of the course which the majority of that goes toward paying the
Golf Carts lease for the course.
Chris Holt, General Manager provided information as to the necessity to replace the 25
irrigation satellite controller boxes.
The Council and staff reviewed the agenda for the City Council meeting of August 9, 2016.
There being no further business, Mayor Dunlap adjourned the meeting at 12:45 p.m.
