Staff feels confident that a private company, like IGM, can meet and in many ways surpass the <br />objectives of the County. The Staff also feels the County has the responsibility to the "Golfing <br />Patrons" to maintain and even reduce costs when possible. Staff feels strongly in that the County <br />has the responsibility to maintain it's facility with the standards to meet current and long range <br />objectives. With a private company like IGM, staff feels confident these objectives can be met. By <br />contracting with IGM, the County's Sandridge Golf Club could financially save $140,114 the first <br />year with a minimum savings of $354,342 over the three year life of the contract and the potential of <br />maintaining rates in years to come. This is a very good business decision for the County. <br />The future of all current rent employees has been a main concern of Staff from the onset. IGM has <br />indicated in writing, they will interview every employee on the County's existing golf maintenance <br />staff for a position within the Company, and will make offers to the employees that show an interest <br />level and meet the criteria set forth. It has been the intent to allow affected current employees, who <br />wish to remain within the County system, time to secure a position within. Adequate time would be <br />allowed for those employees who do not want to remain in the County system or with IGM ,to find <br />employment elsewhere <br />RECOMMENDATION <br />Staff recommends the following: <br />1.
