Admission Tax revenues currently collected at Foster Golf Links are not remitted to the
General Fund. This practice has been in place since the 2019-2020 budget biennium, but it
has not been properly codified in the TMC. The proposed ordinance rectifies this issue by
updating the TMC to allign with current practice of keeping the revenues within the Foster
Golf Links Fund (411). Committee is being asked to consider and approve the ordinance so
it may be considered by the full council.
