March 8, 1988 The City's ~irector of Pa~ks and Recreation, Dr. L. Pettis Patton, working with the Purchasing Ageht~ ahd the PGA"Employee Committee representative, Mr. Butch Liebler, developed a' Request For Qualifications (RFQ) for operation of the concessions at City'Park. A copy of-the announcement for the RFQ is attached. Working with the PGA represent~ti~e, thee RFQ was advertised locally, as well as in PGA bulletins. The original advertisement for this RFQ generated only one proposal. In an attempt to generate additional prop~sa-ls the RFQ was ~e~dvertised.~ Once again, ~nl~y'~one proposal~ was received. An internal committee consis~-i~g~of Dr~ P~tt~'n, John Grook, Paul Forehand and my Assistant, Patrick J. Coffield, reviewed the proposal and met with the bidder,~M.r~'J&mes S. armentrout. ~ ~ ~ i~' T~he Director of~,rks and Rec~ea{~n~has indi~%ted %o me that, based upon anticipated usage, the~ C~ity shou.ld~expect an - increase~ of $48,000-in concession reve'nues. The prop'osed agreement is for~a ~ne year period With~n~opportun~ity ~fo~'it to be reviewed if both parties so desire. The~firslt year of operation at the Park is extremely important and I am extremely confident-that. Mr. Armentrout 'can pro~d~.~a- qu~lity~p~ogram and operation at City Park. As you can see from the attached proposal,~he s~ff-~as placed a ~ea't~.~eal o~ ~ph~is on outlining the ~uties and responsibiti~i~s~ for~ the~@o~f Course Manager. E~phas~s was also placed on the Golf Cours~Manager continuing, and if possible, expanding upon ~he existing youth programs. Because of the location'o~f the Conc~s~lo~ a.r~a and the individuals who would use the facilities (golfers, tennis players, boaters, picnickers, etc.) a requiremeint h~s"been placed on the Golf Course Manager to ~ave' reas6nable, food prices for'the items provided. Based upon staff's review and comments, I request authorization t~ ex~c~ute an agreement with Mr. ~rme~trout for the operation of the City Park Golf Complex effective April 1, 1988."
