BACKGROUND The attached legislation was prepared by the Department of Parks, Recreation and Public Facilities. As it has for the last approximately thirty years, the Greater Miami. Women's Golf Association plans to hold two (2) tournaments at the City's golf courses during 1989. In the past, the City has; granted a waiver of the green fees for participants in these tournaments, provided that electric golf cart recital he mandatory and that the Association purchase all awards for these tournaments from the pro shops of the respective courses. Such waiver has served to promote these facilities by attracting both new and repeat player business. As shown below, the impact on City revenues from this waiver is minimal. When compared to the normal applicable rates, the result of the proposed waiver is a difference in revenue of $960 for the two tournaments, based on an estimated 60 players per tournament. Proposed Tournament Rate: gross revenue $1,080 $9/player cart rental x 60 players = $540 $540 x 2 tournaments = $1,080 89�--321 Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Commission Resolution Waiving Green Fees for Women's Golf Association page 2 Normal Rates: gross revenue $2,040 ($780 + $1,260 = $2,040) Summer (May Tournament) $13/player (= Special Package Rate of $26 for both cart and 2-player green fee) $13/player x 60 players = $ 780 revenue Winter (October Tournament) �- $12/player special green fee + $9/player cart rental $21/player $21/player x 60 players = $1,260 revenue Since the Association will support these facilities through the purchase of awards, and the after -tournament luncheons, we recommend that the waiver be granted.
