SUBJECT: CONCESSION AGREEMENT TO OPERATE RESTAURANT
ON RIVER VIEW GOLF COURSE
The City Council recently approved a Novation of Lease
between the City and River View Golf (Novel James) con-
cerning the City-owned property on which a portion of
the course is located. Paragraph 12 of the Lease requires
prior written consent of the Council before the golf course
management may permit any concession on the premises.
River View Golf and K. J. Enterprises wish to enter into a
concession agreement (attached to this memo) to operate a
restaurant and refreshment stand ("half-way house") on the
golf course. We have reviewed the agreement and find no
objection to it, providing the City's consent is conditioned
as explained below. Part of the City's rent .f_rom the golf
course operation is a percentage (2%) of the gross receipts
from the sale of beer and wine, which will be sold from the
concession restaurant.
RECOMr1ENDATION: Approve the agreement by adoption of the
following motion:
Motion: That the Ciay Council authorizes the Mayor to give
