Abstract/Contents: | In 1990, the Fort Worth City Council leased two of the cities public golf courses to private management companies. In 1993 the City Council instigated a questionnaire study to private management companies and compared the results with assumptions learned from the previous leasing in 1990. "Based upon the findings, it was concluded that leasing golf courses can be more profitable for a municipality than a city's operation if the municipality maintains a policy of recommending fee adjustments on an operational need basis only. However, if adjustments are made in line with a capital improvement package or a predetermined incremental percentage, the profitablity differential is eliminated and additional capital improvements and revenues can be realized." |
