A motion was made by Council Member Benson, seconded by Council Member
Dorsey, that this amended Resolution be approved.
Council Member Fowler stated that she had an Amendment by Substitution to
include three additional contracts for the following golf courses:
-Contract to Grant Hummel - Sun Valley Golf Course
-Contract for Patrick Vadden - Vettiner Golf Course
Louisville Metro Government Page 11
Metro Council Action Summary - Final February 6, 2020
-Contract for T Betz Golf - Long Run Golf Course
A motion to amend by substitution was made by Council Member Fowler,
seconded by Council Member Benson.
Council Member Winkler thanked Council Member Fowler for her work on this.
Council Member Fox thanked Council Member Fowler for her work on this. He
stated that the mission was to save golf while achieving revenue neutrality
and avoid drawing from the general fund, that he was proud that it was a
bi-partisan effort between Council Member Fowler, Council Member Peden,
Council Member Kramer and himself, and that the Council and Administration
worked together to get to this point.
Council Member Kramer provided some background history since he became
involved in this subject when the Mayor provided no funding for golf courses in
the budget last year and and planned to hire an outside entity to manage the
courses. He stated that unlike the closing of pools and libraries and the
cancellation of police recruit classes, this was one plan the Mayor shared in
advance and the Council made it clear that they were not interested in the
plan nor were they interested in the suggestion that some of the golf courses
be closed. He further explained that as the Administration took heed of the
Council's concerns and considered other options, they struggled with how to
contract with golf professionals in a way that would be consistent with the
Ordinances passed by the Council. He explained two outstanding concerns he
had regarding the the Council not being informed of how the process would
work until after the Administration had completed it, and how there were still
three other golf courses that did not have contracts and therefore will have to
be ran by Metro Parks. He related his budget concerns surrounding the
Middletown Library to this topic and spoke of possible closures for the three
golf courses without contracts. He stated his concern that by accepting
contracts for six of the golf courses the Administration may come back in a few
months and say they cannot find pros for the other three golf courses and that
they are too expensive to run, and the Council will be asked to accept that golf
is an amenity the city cannot afford. He stated that he was struggling with his
vote because a 'yes' vote may mean that the three 9-hole golf courses will go
and a 'no' vote may mean that all of the golf courses are in danger.
Council Member Hollander clarified that the Council did not add money in the
budget for golf courses and the amount proposed by the Mayor remained the
same. He stated that there was an Ordiance that required golf courses without
pros to be run by Metro Parks and that there was no time limit on how long
they were to run such courses, and that there was another Ordinance that says
no golf course can be closed or repurposed without the affirmative vote of the
Council. He stated that turning down six good contracts for golf courses
because the Council was mad about not having three other contracts in place
is a bad idea as there are safeguards to protect the three golf courses without
contracts.
Council Member Yates thank Council Member Fowler for here work on this.
He spoke about the Bobby Nichols golf course and stated that it would take a
majority vote of the Council to close it. He stated that he was meeting with an
econonmic development team to find incentives to make the golf course more
attractive because he sees golf not just as a game but as part of the
Louisville Metro Government Page 12
Metro Council Action Summary - Final February 6, 2020
community, and that such amenities protect the intergrity of the
neighborhoods around it. He explained that his top priorities were public
safety and infrastructure, but that other amenities are needed to make
Louisville a great place so that the city can attract the top talent which in turn
allows the city to reinvest in public safety and infrastructure.
Council Member Fowler spoke about how events like golf scrambles bring
communities together and stated that she too would fight to keep the Bobby
Nichols golf course from closing. She thanked those at Metro Parks and those
in the purchasing department regarding the negotiations of the contracts, and
noted that the percentages the pros were getting is not much different from
what they were getting before and that between $3,000 and $5,000 on average
is what the city will realize per course. She thanked the Council for their work
on changing the golf fees at the end of last year to create more revenue. She
then spoke about the problems she had with the selection process for the pros,
and how some of the applicants who had put 40+ years of work in to helping
run the golf courses were disrespected during the process.
Council Member Sexton Smith stated that though the path was difficult she is
in favor of this and spoke about the nine core values taught by the First Tee
program. She also stated that though everyone will not get what they want,
the good decision they make now is better than waiting for a perfect decision
tomorrow.
A motion was made by Council Member Flood, seconded by Council Member
Triplett, to invoke Rule 5.11(e) to limit debate on the proposed Amendment by
Substitution. The motion carried with a voice vote.
Council Member Piagentini stated that he would be voting for this because he
believed from the discussion here that the three golf courses will be protected.
He also stated that the Council was not supportive of how the process worked
and that he hopes the Administration understands the Council's intent, is more
respectful of all employees, and provides a level of certainty during turbulent
times.
Council Member Kramer clarified his previous statements in regards to
comments made by others.
Council Member Fowler stated that the profits from golf were up at least 20
percent since July, and that any profit realized from golf would go back into
golf courses and that she will be making an amendment regarding such. She
then asked that Hollie Hopkins, Jefferson County Attorney's Office, explain the
current Golf Ordinance regarding selling or repurposing golf courses and what
it means in regards to the three 9-hole golf courses without contracts at this
time.
Hollie Hopkins gave a summary of the Ordinance, and Council Member
Hollander read the Ordinance regarding the process necessary to close or
repurpose a golf course.
Council Member Kramer asked Council President James if he had recieved
any assuances from the Administration that they would get contracts for the
last three courses, and Council President James stated that he had not
recieved any such assurances. Council Member Kramer asked whether
Louisville Metro Government Page 13
Metro Council Action Summary - Final February 6, 2020
Council Member Fowler, Council Member Fox, or Council Member Peden had
recieved any such assurances, and Council Member Fowler explained that she
had asked the Jefferson County Attorney's Office if any action taken now
would prohibit the three golf courses without contracts from getting contracts
and she was assured that they were not prohibiting such. She further stated
that the RFP process ends if the contracts are approved this evening and she
asked the Jefferson County Attorney's Office if someone could tell them how
the process would work regarding contracts for the last three golf courses.
Hollie Hopkins explained that there are various mechanisms in the
procurement code regarding entering into a contract and that there is no
requirement that a particular mechanism be used in this case.
Council Member Kramer stated that his concern was that Metro Parks will be
running the three golf courses and whether they will hire pros for those golf
courses or instead find a way to have the courses closed. He stated that he
wanted to protect all of the golf courses and that he either wanted an
assurance from the Administration that they will get pros for the three golf
courses or an assurance from his collegues that they will not settle for having
only the six golf courses and decide it is the best they can do. Council
Member Fowler responded that she plans to introduce legislation that makes it
easier to get contracts for the last three golf courses.
Council Member Ackerson stated that the Council is only considering six
contracts in regards to this legislation, and that they were not there to debate
about golf or to make committments regarding golf course closures or golf
revenues, and that those discussions should be held at the Parks and
Sustainability Committee meeting.
A motion was made by Council Member Ackerson, seconded by Council
Member Yates, to Call the Question. Council Member Kramer objected.
Council Member Winkler stated that he agreed with Council Member Ackerson
and added that the Administration had provided a contract for one of the
9-hole golf courses that was not accepted and that it was an act of good faith.
He stated that the six contracts before them were the only things being
considered now and that approving them is the only thing that assures that the
six golf courses have contracts.
Council Member Fowler spoke about the one 9-hole golf course contract that
was not signed by the contractor due to some of the provisions not being
negotiated by the full team, and that going forward she hopes that they do not
forget about that contractor.
Council Member Ackerson reiterated his motion to Call the Question. Council
President James called for a voice vote and a voice vote was taken. Council
Member Kramer objected and suggested that the Rule be read. Council
Member Hollander stated that there was no one else in the cue and that it
appeared that everyone was ready to vote and Council President James
agreed. Council President James explained that the voice vote to Call the
Question was in the affirmative and that now they were going to vote on the
Amendment by Substitution.
Council Member Kramer explained his vote and stated that he believes that
the vote on this legislation does concern what happens to the three golf

courses that do not have contracts, and that there are no assurances that the
Administration will commit to the future of these golf courses.

A motion was made by Council Member Triplett, seconded by Council Member
Winkler, that this Resolution be approved.
Council Member Fowler explained that this was the second Resolution
considered regarding this topic. She stated that this was a Resolution that was
not binding but it was a step in the right direction for getting sustainable
renewable energy for the city. She also stated that she still had concerns
about how it will be funded.
Council Member Coan stated that he had worked with others for more than a
year to get the Resolution into a more practicable form, to realign some of the
goals, and to reorder some of the goals to put Metro Government first in terms
of leading by example. He stated that there was a public hearing and they
heard from advocates, representatives of the Louisville Gas and Electric
Company, and the Energy Manager from Cincinnati. He mentioned the
concerns some people had regarding the cost and that figuring the cost was
not simple math, especially with changes in technology, the markets, and the
environment over the next 5-10 years. He stated that there were several
amendments made, and he pointed out the most recent amendment made at
the special Parks and Sustainability Committee meeting the previous week.
He explained the three steps that Jeff O'Brien, Develop Louisville, went over at
the Committee meeting, which include the following: conduct an energy audit
of Metro Government operations; with the savings anticipated from the energy
audit, hire an energy manager that will closely monitor the energy bills; and
with the additional anticipated savings, send out a RFP for a conversion study.
He stated that he did not feel the need to debate climate change, and that the
passage of this Resolution would not solve all of the problems but that it would
be a start in the right direction. He finished by urging the Council to support
this Resolution.
Council Member George spoke about the reasons she joined as a co-sponsor
Louisville Metro Government Page 16
Metro Council Action Summary - Final February 6, 2020
on the legisalation. She stated that she wanted the future of the city to be one
that works proactively to make essential investments that yeild long-term
savings. She also urged the Council to support the Resolution.
Council Member Piagentini stated that if the Resolution only consisted of
Sections 2 and 3, he'd be inclined to vote for it. He further stated that the goal
in Section 1 of net zero or net positive energy, water, and waste would be very
expensive to accomplish and that it would hinder development, especially in
under-developed communities. He stated that he realized that climate change
is real and that they should be stewards and move in that direction, but he
cannot support mandating changes to the building codes that require the city
to meet these goals within 10 years and private citizens and business within 20
years. He stated that he would vote against this and urged the Council to vote
against this Resolution. And he stated that, in regards to Resolutions not being
binding, there have been Resolutions that have cost the city millions of dollars,
such as the millions of dollars provided for the Affordable Housing Trust which
started as a Resolution. He concluded by stating that this Resolution moves
resources and Section 1 is unchartered terrritory and he cannot support such
without a roadmap.
Council Member Parker stated that she wanted to preempt her statement by
noting that she voluntarily does many things to be conservative when it comes
to the environment. She stated that the 100 percent goal and the 10-year
timeline are not rational or achievable. She stated concerns she had about
hiring an energy manager with a high salary; the millions of dollars in savings
that were to be realized and how it was not actually savings but monies that
will be provided by federal grants; and a study done by the University of
Maryland that showed that solar farms create a heat island effect. She stated
that she would not be supporting this Resolution because it will be held over
their heads; it will create new regulations, new costs, and new taxes for the
private sector; it will also slow business growth and residents will leave; and
housing will not be affordable with the additional costs of retrofitting homes.
She stated that next would be the rationing of water, limiting the amount of
garbage produced and charging more for going over the limit, and she
questioned where the regulation would end.
A motion was made by Council Member Winkler, seconded by Council
Member Flood, to invoke Rule 5.11(e) to limit debate. The motion carried by a
voice vote.
Council Member Winkler stated that the Resolution only had time bound
elements around the clean electricity goal, clean energy goal, and clean
energy community-wide goal, and does not have time bounds in regards to
moving to 100 percent net positive waste and water. He stated that there was
also no time bound element regarding the building codes and that instead it
sets a standard that the city should strive to achieve. He stated that the way to
move forward is with ambitious goals. He stated that people and businesses
already pay for the impacts of climate change as part of costs for things like
health insurance and flood protection systems. He stated that, when asked in
the future by his children, he wanted to be able to say to them that he took
action regarding this issue when he had the chance. He urged support for this
Resolution not only by the Council, but by the entire community.
Council Member Reed stated that he could not support anything without
Louisville Metro Government Page 17
Metro Council Action Summary - Final February 6, 2020
knowing what the cost would be and that he would be interested in doing the
conservation audit and then revisit this issue. He stated that he appreciated
that everyone wants clean energy and a clean environment, but the private
sector will ultimately do what is in their best interest from a cost standpoint.
He concluded by stating that he would be a 'no' vote.
Council Member Hollander stated that this city was not the only one facing
these decisions, that there are cities all over the country and major
corporations that are saying they have to take action. He also stated that
when he is asked in the future what he did when the climate crisis came, he
was not willing to say that he did nothing because it was too hard, and that he
would be a 'yes' vote on this.
Council Member Coan addressed statements made by others that were
incorrect and he explained the goals in the Resolution.
Council Member Yates stated that he worried about the non-binding nature of
the Resolution because it may tell the public that the Council is doing
something they are not. He stated that this Resolution asserts that the Council
supports a goal for the future and nothing more, and that the Council is limited
with what they can do in local government. He also made a statement about
what it means to make a goal of 100 percent achievement.
A motion was made by Council Member Yates, seconded by Council Member
Flood, to Call the Question. The motion carried by the following vote:
Yes: 16 - Dorsey, Sexton Smith, Purvis, James, McCraney, Coan, Hollander, Blackwell, Fox,

wife's employment with a company that works with LG&E.
