Council to discuss budget
The city earlier this year hired a consultant, Larry Flatt, to create a master plan of renovations and updates for the golf course.
The city could spend about $2 million in a one-time investment in renovating the course and clubhouse as well as building a golf practice facility, removal of damaged or dead trees and replacement, replacing irrigation equipment, repairing greens, tee boxes and cart paths, and buying new golf carts.
Costs to update the course also could be phased in over six years, according to the budget proposal. That would entail spending $235,000 to $260,000 a year.
Other items that could be funded with the money include more downtown streetscaping at $500,000 per block, repairing sidewalks throughout the city for $754,000 or building a downtown parking garage for $1 million. A number of other projects, such as repairing or building softball fields, funding neighborhood improvements, developing a downtown green space, also are possibilities but at unknown costs.
Budget meetings
Work sessions on the budget will be held at 5:45 p.m. Tuesday through Thursday in the basement of City Hall, 602 Main St.
