Parks, Forestry and Recreation (“PFR”) operates five golf courses and leases out two golf courses. In the current service delivery model for the five City operated golf courses, golf course assets and turf are maintained by the City; green fees are set by City Council, while ticket sales, golf cart rentals, pro shops, lessons and programs as well as food and beverage operations are contracted out under two separate agreements that were awarded through a Request for Proposal (RFP) process, a model that has been in place since 1993. The two agreements for golf management and food and beverage operations expired on November 30, 2017. PFR is currently conducting a review of golf course operations to determine a model that will achieve optimal management and quality play for the general public. The results of the review will be reported back in early 2019 with a view to launching an RFP based on the findings of the review. Click on the link to read the full report.
