people to talk about how to activate those golf course. we had people's to manage the course and they did first organization that provides the youth advancement programming at a number of our other golf course like glen eagles they teach you the core position and they teach the children how to learn important life skills like integrity and patience and that's fold into the curriculum. we work with over 50 public san

francisco schools for in and necessity of school programming pr and at the mcclarn golf course they have the sunnyville projects to give the kids an opportunity to get on the golf course and the kids were never invited into this but now over the last few years have had the opportunity. the first t will be hiring emily to the level of hip who was previously worked at the golden gate golf course and she'll be working with tom who's been is professional and overseeing day to day golf course around the nation. their key terms are an initial

term of 5 years. there's a potential 2 year exception term that can be triggered if the gotten gate invests $150,000. at the course the department is investing this lease will benefit all the users and so that 1 hundred and 50 thousand will include bathroom renovations and improvements spot driving range will be an average rate of over 1 how thousand dollars and a there will be a shared register between hundred and 50 and $5,000 and they'll be a split with the city receiving revenue

above 5 thousand dollars. one of the key issues we want to address is making sure that the existing course users continue to have access to the course throughout the year as we add additional programming to the course. the rounds of course have long been down and we feel interesting there's an opportunity to get it up but we want to insure the existing users will have access to the course. and the times we found there would be the highest opportunity for conflict and conversations with the community are saturday afternoons and week days after work.

we have limited to 3 t times will be the maximum of the last t will be available on saturday morning and not have that be availability in the summer and we'll have limitations to one group of children who are utilizing the hole from in the early to later afternoon. this is a structure we've done at fleming and glen eagles golf course and have found it they have similar fears to users of golden gate golf course but those fears are unfounded they will be forced off the course.

the first t will be installing an potentialable classroom to provide their programming. we wanted them to do this not to impact the existing clubhouse used by all golf users so this portable classroom will be on site and we've received the fund for the placement of that classroom and this will be important for providing their classroom. this is much more than giving the kids a golf club there's a lot of material and classroom learn that will help the children complete their homework during the school years and there's additional inclassroom

work before hitting the course. the financial benefit of the lease significant the department pays the current operator $300,000 regardless of their operating expenses and regardless of course revenues. in moving to a lesee we wanted to tie the operation to the course revenues and in doing so we have not only given the operator maximizes the course but we are frankly saving some additional revenues for ours over the existing lease. so in lease one we expect a payment to the city of 2 hundred and a $60,000 not a net revenue

but your revenue before our course maintenance, expenses that is up $148,000 where the department received approximately $212,000 from revenue from the course. that will go up over the life of the lease to approximately $412,000 in the year 5 and that's in city revenue that's important as the budget navel will note will butt put us on a revenue improvement that is important as the department is always looking to reduce our golf deficit. with that i'll make myself available to any questions that the committee may have

>> go ahead and - >> thank you for your presentation do any of our golf course operate at a profit. >> sharp and eagles glen eagles. >> go to our budget analysis report. >> mr. chairman and supervisor avalos i'll note on page 7 of our report we have a net loss of the lease in a net gain over the 5 year gain of $104,000 in table 7 i stated on page 7 of our report.

the other point is the proposed 5 year lease didn't require any of the golden gate park to be paid for by the department. and we have a lease over seven years no rent adjustments so throughout the base pay it would remain at a flat $200,000 we believe there should be an just a minute to the 2 hundred and 25 thousand. we ask you amend the recommendation to include the increases if the one year additional 2 year option is recognized and we ask you approve this legislation as amended >> i'll be happy to respond to any questions. >> thank you very much mr.

rose. to rec and park department so the recommendations you're okay with >> we're spot i have and we've revised the changes. >> okay. we'll open it up to public comment. i have a number of speaker cards please line up over on the left side and everyone will have two minutes (calling names) >> good morning, supervisors.
