February 23, 2024 Parks and Recreation | Minutes Page 1 of 3 James Wiley, Parks and Recreation, explained when we reformed the committee, we had a discussion about residency and the board decided members should be members of the City. Since then, Will Moschetti passed and Dan Stewart moved away and he just found out that Dana Morfin has moved to Spring Creek. We have an applicant that is a resident of Spring Creek but he coaches Elko High School. It makes sense to change those requirements back to being a resident of Elko County. Clair Morris agreed that it made sense to do that. Dana Morfin stated she will still keep a golf cart here and she plans on golfing on a regular basis and remain a part of the Ladies League. Mr. Morris does not have a problem with it. Mr. Wiley said this item will be on the agenda for City Council on Tuesday. ** A motion was made by Member Morfin, seconded by Member Johnson to approve change the bylaws back to it being an Elko County resident to be on the Elko Golf Course Advisory Board. The motion passed unanimously. (3-0) VII. UNFINISHED BUSINESS VIII. REPORTS VIII.A STAFF REPORTS James Wiley reported in addition to the bylaws being on the agenda, we have 2 interested individuals applying to be on the board. Once they are appointed he will schedule another Golf Course Advisory Committee meeting to go over statistics, project priorities, hole #3 conversion and rates. It will probably be soon. Austin Bochman reported they are waiting on Mother Nature. He didn't see the course being open on March 1st, after looking at the forecast. One project he would like to do on #18, he would like to take the sand trap out and make a grass trap. It is just like a sand trap but you let the grass grow. As far as staffing goes, he will have everyone coming back but one but he has another person interested in working. He looks forward to accomplishing more things at the golf course. Rick Longhurst reported he was not feeling well. VIII.B BOARD REPORTS No reports. February 23, 2024 Parks and Recreation | Minutes Page 2 of 3 IX. SCHEDULE THE NEXT GOLD COURSE ADVISORY BOARD MEETING James Wiley said he would coordinate the next meeting with the Finacial Services Director to get the next meeting scheduled. We will probably do it on a Friday and have it here. Rick Longhurst said passes have been selling at last year's rate. What happens if we raise the rates? Clair Morris answered they got lucky. We won't go back and make them pay the difference. Mr. Longhurst said he will open the Pro Shop on March 1st and start selling passes too. X. COMMENTS BY THE GENERAL PUBLIC There were no public comments. There being no further business, the meeting was adjourned. February 23, 2024 Parks and Recreation | Minutes Page 3 of 3
