RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF
CHULA VISTA APPROVING A GOLF COURSE FACILITY
MANAGEMENT AGREEMENT WITH TOUCHSTONE GOLF
FOR THE INTERIM OPERATIONS OF THE CHULA VISTA
GOLF COURSE
WHEREAS, the City of Chula Vista's 32 year lease with American Golf Corporation for
the Chula Vista Municipal Golf Course (CVMGC) expired on October 31, 2016; and
WHEREAS, a detailed analysis of the existing operation determined that there were both
strengths and weakness in the current status of the course, but that changes and upgrades would
be necessary to continue to provide the public with a quality product while still remaining
profitable; and
WHEREAS, in order to fully determine specific steps to be taken and identify funding
sources to pay for these changes, it was determined that a short term agreement to keep the
course operational would be the best course; and
WHEREAS, negotiations with the current operator in an attempt to reach agreement on
terms for a one-year contract to continue operations were unsuccessful, so staff commenced
negotiations and reached agreement with Touchstone Golf, LLC to assume management of the
course for a one-year period; and
WHEREAS, Touchstone Golf, LLC is uniquely experienced and qualified to manage the
transition and operation of the Chula Municipal Golf Course for a one-year period; and
WHEREAS, whereas staff is not recommending appropriations as part of approving the
agreement with Touchstone Golf for the interim operations of the Chula Vista Golf Course; and
WHEREAS, staff will return at a later date to present to Council for its approval, the
formal operating financial structure and budget proposed for the agreement with Touchstone
Golf.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the City Council of the City of Chula
Vista, that it approves the Golf Course Facility Management between the City and Touchstone
Golf. LLC, in the form presented, with such minor modifications as may be required or approved
by the City Attorney, a copy of which shall be kept on file in the Office of the City Clerk and
authorizes and directs the Mayor to execute same.
