have the most effective set up for the large number of people who go through the
facility. Staff is recommending improvements to the restaurant, pro shop, and
bathrooms. Total cost for these improvements has an estimated range of $259,000 to
$353,500. The Board of Directors approved Phase I improvements of $175,000 in the
2012 Budget. Citizen’s comments will be taken into consideration with regard to the
priority of the improvements.
7. South Suburban Golf Course Halfway House Improvements (estimated cost of
$100,000). The restroom facility (halfway house) on the golf course is in need of
major repair. One of the two stalls was closed this season due to a rotted out floor.

funds. They will return to contingency or undesignated funds for reappropriation.
