I. INTRODUCE NEW BOARD MEMBERS
Don Tolley introduced new board members Boyd Cooper and
Loraine Navis to the Board. '
II. ELECT NEW CHAIRMAN
Boyd Cooper was elected as new chairman out of 3 nominees
for the position. Also elected were Shirley Akagi as Vice
Chairman and Loraine Navis as Secretary. Both passed
unanimously.
Mr. Cooper took the opportunity to thank the Board for their
confidence in him. He stated that he has been a resident of
Caldwell for 48 years, operating Garber Shoe Store. He has since
retired and is very involved in golf. Mr. Cooper named several
positions he has held for various organizations.
Mayor Winder congratulated Mr. Cooper on his nomination and
stated that he fully supports the Golf Board. He stated that he
would like to see more control be given to the Board through the
Chairman. If there is a problem, report this to the Chairman and
he can then take the concerns to either Gordy or the Pros. If
policy needs to be addressed, the Chairman must be sure to get
the information to the Mayor and Council.
Mayor Winder handed out a policy and job description pamphlet
explaining procedures and duties of the Board. He also explained
the Open Meeting laws. Basically all meetings must be made known
to the public at least 5 days in advance and the agenda posted at
least 48 hours in advance.
III. JUDICIAL CONFIRMATION REGARDING PURPLE SAGE IRRIGATION
Mr. Tolley notified the Board that the public hearing on the
Irrigation system will be held at the Council meeting on January
17. He asked that all Board Member try to be there to help answer
questions on the project.
.
I�1• REQUEST FOR SEASON TICKET CREDIT - RECEIVED LAST NOVEMBER
Mr. Tolley read a letter received from Alta Bish requesting
- a refund on a season ticket purchased last year. Apparently Mrs.
Bish 2�ad to undergo surgery and did not fully recover last year.
Subsequently, she did not use her pass.
The Board questioned why this letter was not sent earlier
than November, when the season was over. However, referring to
the present policy, Shirley Akagi made the motion to deny the
refund and Loraine Navis seconded. Motion passed unanimously.
�7• ANNOUNCEMENTS/ADJOURNMENT
Bill Moad brought up several issues that needed addressed.
The first issue concerned the #12 tee box and the easement next
to it in which they are putting in a road. He would like to see a
new fence put in when the old one is removed. However, there may
not be funds to do this.
Bill asked about early opening at Purple Sage this year? It
was said that someone will have the course open on February 1 if
there is no snow.
The question was asked about a policy handbook being
compiled. Currently, there is not one and policies such as the
one concerning refunds have had to be found in the minutes over
the past years. It was asked if someone could research this,
possibly Laura Gamboa.
It was mentioned that the sign at Purple Sage needs to be
repainted. Gordy stated that vandals have broken the sign and it
needs to be replaced.
It was mentioned that the long range planning committee has
not met in awhile. Mr. Moad suggested that they get together
soon. Another idea was to invite the youth leaders for the Junior
Golf program to this committee so they also can help with the
long range planning.
Concern was expressed about vehicles being driven on the
courses when snow is on the ground. Fairview had someone ruin
the #4 and #6 holes by driving on the grass. A fence is the
solution although the Board does not have the funds at this time
to construct one.
Discussion was held on the day and time in which the golf
board meets. After some discussion, it was decided that they
would meet the second Tuesday of each month at 8:00 a.m.
Meeting adjourned 9:00 a.m.
