	Bill Summary Council Member Crescimbeni gave a history of the Blue Cypress Park property and golf course and explained the need for the continuing waiver of the payment of the percentage of gross revenue by the golf course operators. The committee discussed the relative costs and benefits of maintaining golf courses versus ballfields, tennis courts and other recreational assets and the possible results of refusing to grant the waiver and potentially closing down the golf course. Committee members made suggestions to Daryl Joseph, Acting Director of the Parks, Recreation and Community Services Department, about ways the City might partner with the Blue Cypress Golf Course operator and the operator of the City’s Bent Creek golf course on the Westside to increase play at the courses, particularly through youth golf programs. A tie-in with First Tee of Jacksonville was suggested. Council Member Crescimbeni offered an amendment to require the operator to provide the City with discounted greens fees for City employees as a way of recouping some benefit in return for the forgiveness of the gross revenue payment. AMEND/APPROVE 7-0 Allow vendor to supply City Employees a player discount card for a 1 yr trial period.
