( i) CHH 1 RMAN'S REPORT Cooper said that Shirley Akagi had been approached by a Mr. Clint Adams aboUf the possibility of having a charity golf tournament at Purple Sage to help the Benoit family with medical expenses. Shirley said she told him to attend this meeting and . present his proposal to the board. John Watson said Mr. Adams told him that he had made arrangements to hold his event at River Bend. Cooper said he was glad he had found a place for his tourney. . Cooper then told the board that the City Council would like to have any fee adjustments be in to them by the 1 ST of June. Mr. Cooper asked the board for discussion on fee increases for 1998. A discussion was held on the issue of putting credit card procedures at our courses. Everyone agrees that this needs to be done. It was agreed that the smail discount fee to the credit card bank would more than be offset by additional business because it would easier for many people to buy season tickets if they couid use the deferred payment by using credit cards. It was moved by Dave Paulsen and seconded by Loraine Navis that we recommend to the City Council that we establish a credit card system at Fairview and Purple Sage in 1998. The motion passed unanimously. Cooper read the 1997 Golf fees to the board. A discussion followed on the fee schedule. It was generaily agreed that our greens fees are competitive with the other courses and our season tickets are the best value in the Valley. A long discusslon followed on the pros and cons of raising the fees. Bill Moad felt a raise was needed because of the new financiai obligations of the irrigation system and land purchases. Lenny Stroup said he thought the fees at Fairview should remain the same to stay competitive with other 9 hole courses in the valiey. It was moved by Dave Paulsen and seconded by Pete Cowies that we raise green fees at Purple Sage to $13.00 for 18 holes on weekdays and $15.00 for 18 holes on weekends and holidays. We will will collect sales tax on all other fees where applicable. The motion passed unanimously. Loraine Navis reported that the people who were originally going to take the Hurst building from Fairview had backed out, but that a new person was going to take it.
