CITY COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT

REPORTS
AGENDA ITEM NO. K.5
DATE: December 17, 2024
TO: City Council
FROM: Michael Wolfe, Public Works Director, (805) 385-8055, [email protected] SUBJECT: Second Amendment to Golf Management Agreement A-8157 and Additional Budget Appropriations. (10 minutes)

RECOMMENDATION
That the City Council approve and authorize:

1. The Mayor to execute a Second Amendment to the Golf Course Management Agreement with American Golf Corporation for a time extension only for an additional term of four months ending on June 30, 2025; and

2. The recognition of additional golf course revenues in the amount of $353,550 and appropriate an amount not to exceed $662,890 for FY 2024-25 expenses in the Golf Course Operating Fund (651). (This item did not originate in Committee since this is a continuation of a previous item approved by the City Council on June 4, 2024.)
Please click the following link to view the required Measure M pre-recorded presentation video: https://youtu.be/LCZNrLi-N-M

BACKGROUND
The City of Oxnard owns the River Ridge Golf Club (“golf operations”), a municipal golf course under the supervision of the Public Works Department. The golf operations consist of two 18-hole golf courses which are currently operated under contract by American Golf Corporation (“AGC”). AGC was awarded the five-year management agreement (“Agreement”) that began on July 1, 2019.

On February 6, 2024, the City Council authorized staff to enter into negotiations with AGC for a new agreement to manage the River Ridge Golf Club operations. Please see the staff report from the February 6, 2024, City Council meeting for reference (Attached).

On June 4, 2024, the City Council approved a term extension to AGC Agreement A-8157 for an additional eight months with a term date of February 25, 2025 (see staff report attached).

DISCUSSION
Second Amendment for Time Extension Only
Staff from Public Works is finalizing a new Agreement with AGC pursuant to prior direction from the City Council at the February 6, 2024, and June 4, 2024, City Council meetings. The major deal points (e.g. term length, compensation, measuring customer service, golf course improvements, capital improvements, and landfill post-closure maintenance) have been drafted and agreed upon by AGC, with only a few minor items to be completed. Staff anticipates concluding the drafting of the new Agreement by January 2025 and will bring a separate action to the City Council for consideration 585
of the new golf course operations agreement. The negotiated draft of the new Agreement will be presented to the City Council in early 2025 for the new Agreement to begin on July 1, 2025. Therefore, staff is recommending this four-month time extension for AGC to complete the current fiscal year of operations.

As noted in the February 6 and June 4, 2024 staff reports, authorizing the extension of the existing agreement with AGC, staff is proposing modifications to the compensation model which will be different than in the existing agreement.

Additionally, staff is including language in the new agreement to incentives for improving the course conditions, repairing and replacing aging infrastructure, and continuing the profitability of the golf operations. Staff has drafted language in the new agreement to address and clarify these major elements that will provide specific objectives and criteria for measuring success.

In addition to providing financial thresholds and triggers for the operator to meet, there are also thresholds and requirements that are associated with the golf course experience for the customers. As such, in order to have a clean and separate accounting of revenues, expenditures, and incentives between the old agreement and the new proposed agreement, staff is recommending the extension of the existing agreement until the end of the current fiscal year. This will allow for:

1. The objectives/incentives in the current Agreement to be applied to the current thresholds and triggers

2. The new Agreement objectives/incentives to be based upon a complete fiscal year’s worth of data

3. A defined start/stop date for the Annual Plan; consistent with the approved Annual Plan of expenditures and revenue

4. The current and next fiscal year records to be complete fiscal years that coincide with the current and new agreements
Recognition and Appropriation of Additional Funds
Revenues: FY 2024-25 Golf Fund revenues are projected at $6,500,000, up $353,550 from the original budget of $6,146,450.

Expenditures: FY 2024-25 Golf Fund expenditures are projected at $5,800,000 million, up $662,890 from the original budget of $5,137,191. The main reason for the increase in expenses is the replacement of the cart bridge on hole #18 and the unplanned capital replacement of the irrigation controls and central computer which are one-time expenses.

Unfortunately, an unplanned Southern California Edison (SCE) power surge damaged the previous irrigation system beyond repair. City staff is working with SCE staff on a claim for reimbursement to the City for the cost of the new irrigation system.

STRATEGIC PRIORITIES
This agenda item supports Economic Development strategy. The purpose of Economic Development strategy is to focus on the retention and expansion of Oxnard businesses by increasing the skills and employability of our local workforce, invite new business investments, and target site-based redevelopment opportunities.

FINANCIAL IMPACT
The Golf Management Agreement Second Amendment, to extend time only, will allow the Manager (AGC) to continue to manage and operate the golf course through the fiscal year in accordance with the standards set forth in the current Agreement and the most recently City-approved Annual Plan. Golf operations are funded by the Golf Enterprise Fund (651). The Adopted FY 2024-25 budget was set as the same as the Adopted FY 2023-24 budget.

Due to the performance of the golf operation during the past six months, staff requests to recognize an increase of $353,550 in budgeted revenues and the appropriation of $662,890 for additional expenses for capital improvements.

CITY COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT

REPORTS
AGENDA ITEM NO. L.4
DATE: February 6, 2024
TO: City Council
FROM: Michael Wolfe, Public Works Director, (805) 385-8055, [email protected] SUBJECT: Golf Management Agreement. (10 minutes)

RECOMMENDATION
That the City Council authorize staff to enter into negotiations with American Golf Corporation for a new Agreement to manage the River Ridge Golf Club operations.
(The Public Works and Transportation Committee was scheduled to consider this item on January 9, 2024. That meeting was canceled and the item is being brought directly to Council for action due to time constraints.) Please click the following link to view the required Measure M pre-recorded presentation video: https://youtu.be/69uH3oiNOTs

BACKGROUND
The City of Oxnard owns the River Ridge Golf Club (“golf operations”), a municipal golf course under the supervision of the Public Works Department. The golf operations consist of two 18-hole golf courses that are currently operated under contract by American Golf Corporation (“AGC”). AGC was awarded the management agreement (“Agreement”) that began on July 1, 2019 and will expire on June 30, 2024.

DISCUSSION
With the pending expiration of the AGC Agreement, which will occur on July 1, 2024 for the management of the golf operations, staff has been identifying options for a new agreement with a vendor to operate the golf course enterprise.

Generally, two options are available for a third-party vendor to manage the golf operations: (1) send out a new Request For Proposals (RFP) for all vendors to submit individual proposals or (2) directly negotiate with the existing vendor based upon certain criteria. The Public Works Department has confirmed with the City’s Purchasing Agent, per Article 4-52 of the City Code for Trade and Professional Services, that the City may enter into new negotiations with AGC based upon their performance of managing the golf operations during the current Agreement. Staff has identified three key elements to make this recommendation to the City Council. These include: financial stability/viability, customer satisfaction, and the condition of the golf course.

KEY ELEMENTS:

Financial -
The golf operations have been profitable during each operating year of AGC’s management. This includes the COVID years when the golf operations posted net profits of $2.2 million in FY 2020-21 and $1.8 million in FY 2021-22. For FY 2022-23, the total revenues were $6.2 million with expenditures of $4.7 million. Therefore, the net revenue for the golf operation in FY 2022-23 was $1.5 million. The declining net revenues for each fiscal year are directly associated with the increases for living wage, prevailing wage, and the increasing costs of utilities and goods and services. To generate more 646
revenue, the golf course green fees were increased by an average of $5 per round beginning on July 1, 2023. The FY 2023-24 Golf Annual Plan had projected revenues of $6.1 million. However, after the first half of this fiscal year, the revenues are now projected to exceed $7 million.

The net revenues for each fiscal year remain with the Golf Enterprise Fund as the Fund Balance. The Fund Balance is the accumulation of operating surpluses that includes the annual net revenues. At the completion of each fiscal year, these surpluses are transferred into this fund and can only be used for the operations and improvements of the golf operations.

For best management practice, per Council policy, the Fund Balance reserves $1.4 million to cover six months of golf operating expenses. Therefore, the Golf Enterprise available fund balance, in excess of the Council policy, as of June 30, 2023 is $3.3 million.

The annual net revenue amounts posted by AGC for the golf course operations were not seen under the previous golf course operator and agreement.

Customer Satisfaction -
Between October 10, 2023 and December 10, 2023, a customer survey was conducted to measure the satisfaction of golf course users based on the management by AGC. This survey was targeted to actual golf course users who are on the email list for the River Ridge Golf Club. Additionally, a computer was provided in the pro shop for customers to take the survey in person. The survey results (Attachment 1) were calculated from 1,094 customers. It is interesting to note that 62% of the golf course customers are not residents of the City of Oxnard, and 64% of the customers do not consider River Ridge to be their primary course. Therefore, the majority of the revenues that are generated by the golf operations are from non-residents. In terms of value, 55% of the users surveyed consider the golf course to be a good or excellent value, while 29% consider it a fair value, and only 2% consider it a poor value. In response to the friendliness of staff, 95% of the customers surveyed consider the staff to be “Friendly” to “Very Friendly”.

Course Conditions and Improvements -
In terms of the golf course conditions, 35% consider the golf course conditions to be in “Average Quality”, 40 % “Good Quality”, and 5% “Excellent Quality”. Finally, 58% of the users consider the golf course to be in better condition than it was three years ago.

In FY 2022-23, the golf operations generated over $400,000 for receptions and events. Currently, there are $328,000 in deposits and contracts for scheduled receptions and events with another six months remaining in this fiscal year. To accommodate more services that will generate more revenue, the City has a Capital Improvement Project (CIP) to construct a new Event Pavilion at the River Ridge Golf Club to accommodate more events such as golf receptions, weddings, end-of-life celebrations, and other private parties. The current CIP budget for the Event Pavilion is $600,000.

However, after an initial feasibility review, this project will require additional funding. In response, AGC is proposing, subject to a new agreement for up to 10 years, to assist with the new Event Pavilion by contributing up to $525,000 total, in installments from their annual incentive fee, towards the costs of this project. If staff is directed to work directly with AGC on a new agreement, this is one of the topics and amounts that will be negotiated in the best interest of the golf course operations and keeping within the allowable procedures and process for procurement.

Summary -
As a result of AGC’s performance since July 1, 2019 as measured by the continual annual postings of positive revenues, the positive feedback from the recent customer survey, and the proposal by AGC to assist with funding the facility (e.g. event space improvements), staff recommends receiving approval from the City Council to enter into negotiations to continue the management of the golf operations by American Golf Corporation through a new negotiated Agreement. The new negotiated terms, Agreement, and cost will be brought back to the City Council for review, comments, edits, and final approval.

Alternative -
As an alternative to negotiating directly with AGC, staff would produce a RFP and solicit for proposals to be evaluated. Staff does not recommend this option because AGC has proven their qualifications and performance and there 647
is no guarantee that the RFP process would result in an operator that could equal or better the success of AGC. Therefore, staff recommends approval to enter into negotiations for a new agreement and save the time and resources that will be required for the RFP process.

STRATEGIC PRIORITIES
This agenda item supports Economic Development strategy. The purpose of Economic Development strategy is to focus on the retention and expansion of Oxnard businesses by increasing the skills and employability of our local workforce, invite new business investments, and target site-based redevelopment opportunities.

FINANCIAL IMPACT
There is no direct financial impact with approving this recommendation. River Ridge Golf Course operates as an Enterprise Fund. Therefore, operational expenses are paid through golf course revenues with no impact on the General Fund. The cost for the new golf management agreement by AGC, or another operator, will be presented to the City Council for approval at a future Council meeting and will remain an operations cost of the Golf Enterprise Fund.

COMMITTEE OUTCOME
The Public Works and Transportation Committee was scheduled to consider this item on January 9, 2024. That meeting was canceled and the item is being brought directly to Council for action due to time constraints.

CITY COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT

REPORTS
AGENDA ITEM NO. L.4
DATE: June 4, 2024
TO: City Council
FROM:

Michael Wolfe, Public Works Director, (805) 385-8055, [email protected] SUBJECT: Extension of Golf Management Agreement A-8157. (10 minutes)

RECOMMENDATION
That the City Council approve and authorize the First Amendment to the Golf Course Management Agreement with American Golf Corporation for a time extension only with a term of eight months ending on February 28, 2025. (This item did not originate in Committee since this is a continuation of a previous item approved by the City Council on February 6, 2024.)
Please click the following link to view the required Measure M pre-recorded presentation video:

BACKGROUND
The City of Oxnard owns the River Ridge Golf Club (“golf operations”), a municipal golf course under the supervision of the Public Works Department. The golf operations consist of two 18-hole golf courses that are currently operated under contract by American Golf Corporation (“AGC”). AGC was awarded the management agreement (“Agreement”) that began on July 1, 2019 and will expire on June 30, 2024.

On February 6, 2024, the City Council authorized staff to enter into negotiations with AGC for a new agreement to manage the River Ridge Golf Club operations. Please see the staff report from the February 6, 2024 City Council meeting for reference (Attached).

DISCUSSION
Since the City Council’s approval on February 6, 2024 to negotiate a new agreement with AGC, staff from Public Works has been developing updated language for the new agreement. During this same period, staff has been in communication with AGC representatives about the key elements of the proposed new agreement. Some of the major elements in the proposed agreement are:

1. Financial compensation to the golf course operator; to include the base fees and incentive fees

2. Customer satisfaction tracking and scoring

3. Condition of the golf course and improvements to the facilities (e.g. event space)

4. Required maintenance as it relates to the closed landfill (Post-Closure Maintenance Plan) 649
Staff is including language in the new agreement to address and clarify these four major elements to provide specific objectives and criteria for measuring success. In addition to providing financial thresholds and triggers for the operator to meet, thresholds and requirements that are associated with a satisfactory golf course experience for the customers will be highlighted. This shift in perspective will require additional time to negotiate with AGC. As such, staff is requesting to extend the existing contract for eight months ending on February 28, 2025, should the current negotiations extend past the contract expiration date of June 30, 2024. If after two months into the extension, August 31, 2024, there is not an accord on the new agreement, staff will initiate a request for proposal (RFP) process to allow other operators and AGC (should they elect to do so) to submit proposals for the golf operations with the a new agreement date to begin on March 1, 2025.

STRATEGIC PRIORITIES
This agenda item supports Economic Development strategy. The purpose of Economic Development strategy is to focus on the retention and expansion of Oxnard businesses by increasing the skills and employability of our local workforce, invite new business investments, and target site-based redevelopment opportunities.

FINANCIAL IMPACT
The Amendment to extend the Golf Management Agreement will constitute the Manager (AGC) to continue to manage and operate the golf course in accordance with the standards set forth in the current Agreement and the most recent approved Annual Plan and any approved amendments thereto. Therefore, the Golf Enterprise Fund will continue to support the golf operations per the existing City Council-approved budget and mid-year adjustments. The Proposed Budget for FY 2024-25, subject to the City Council’s review and approval, includes sufficient funding for this amendment.

There is no impact to the General Fund.

RECOMMENDATION
2 652

BACKGROUND
3 • City owns the River Ridge Golf Club (“golf operations”), a municipal golf course under the supervision of the Public Works Department.

The golf operations consist of two 18-hole golf courses that are currently operated under contract by American Golf Corporation (“AGC”).
• AGC was awarded the management agreement (“Agreement”) that began on July 1, 2019.
• On February 6, 2024, the City Council authorized staff to enter into negotiations with AGC for a new agreement to manage the River Ridge Golf Club operations.
• On June 4, 2024, the City Council authorized the First Amendment to the Golf Management Agreement with AGC for a time extension ending on February 28, 2025
653

DISCUSSION
4 Second Amendment for Time Extension Only
• Staff from Public Works is finalizing a new Agreement with AGC pursuant to prior direction from the City Council at the February 6, 2024, and June 4, 2024, City Council
meetings
• Major deal points have been drafted and agreed upon by AGC, with only a few minor items to be completed
• Staff anticipates concluding the drafting of the new
Agreement by January 2025 and will bring a separate
action to the City Council for consideration of the new golf course operations agreement
654

DISCUSSION
5 • The negotiated draft of the new Agreement will be
presented to the City Council in early 2025 for the new Agreement to begin on July 1, 2025.
• As noted in the February 6 and June 4, 2024 staff reports, authorizing the extension of the existing agreement with AGC, staff is proposing modifications to the compensation model which will be different than in the existing
agreement.
655

DISCUSSION
6 • In addition to providing financial thresholds and triggers for the operator to meet, there are also thresholds and
requirements that are associated with the golf course
experience for the customers.
• In order to have a clean and separate accounting of
revenues, expenditures, and incentives between the old
agreement and the new proposed agreement, staff is
recommending the extension of the existing agreement
until the end of the current fiscal year.
656

DISCUSSION
7 • This will allow for:
○ Objectives/incentives in the current Agreement to be
applied to the current thresholds and triggers
○ New Agreement objectives/incentives to be based
upon a complete fiscal year’s worth of data
○ Defined start/stop date for the Annual Plan; consistent with the approved Annual Plan of expenditures and
revenue
○ Current and next fiscal year records to be complete
fiscal years that coincide with the current and new
agreements
657

DISCUSSION
8 Recognition and Appropriation of Additional Funds
• Revenues: FY 2024-25 Golf Fund revenues are projected at $6,500,000, up $353,550 from the original budget of
$6,146,450.
• Expenditures: FY 2024-25 Golf Fund expenditures are
projected at $5,800,000 million, up $662,890 from the
original budget of $5,137,191. The main reason for the
increase in expenses is the replacement of the cart bridge on hole #18 and the unplanned capital replacement of the irrigation controls and central computer which are one-time expenses.
658
• Golf Management Agreement Second Amendment, to extend time only, will allow the Manager (AGC) to continue to manage and operate the golf course through the fiscal year in accordance with the standards set forth in the current Agreement and the most recently City-approved Annual Plan. Golf operations are funded by the Golf Enterprise Fund (651). The Adopted FY 2024-25 budget was set as the same as the Adopted FY 2023-24 budget.
• Due to the performance of the golf operation during the past six months, staff requests to recognize an increase of $353,550 in budgeted revenues and the appropriation of $662,890 for additional expenses for capital improvements.
• There is no impact to the General Fund.
