DISCUSSION To maintain proper price points, stimulate growth and work towards revenue goals, Greens Fees at Foster Golf Links (FGL) should be increased. Based on the 2014 Green Fee Survey conducted by FGL staff (attachment A), staff is seeking input from the Community Affairs & Parks Committee regarding a fee increase as shown in Draft Resolution (attachment B). If play in 2014 were equal to the average for the past 3 years (2011-2013), we anticipate that this proposed Greens Fee increase would yield an estimated $50,000 in additional revenue. In order to continue to move towards meeting revenue goals, staff will utilize dynamic pricing and continue to offer promotions and develop ways to increase play. RECOMMENDATION The Committee is being asked to consider this item and forward the resolution to the April 21, 2014 Regular Meeting Consent Agenda. ATTACHMENT A. 2014 Green Fee Survey B.
