APPROVED BY TRUSTEES
TO: The Honorable Chairman and Trustees SEN 17 ZU13
Owasso Public Golf Authority
FROM: Larry Langford
Director of Recreation and Culture
SUBJECT: Recommendation for OPGA Rate Increase
DATE: September 13, 2013
BACKGROUND:
Over the past three years, the Bailey Ranch Golf Club has seen an increase in golf memberships
as well as rounds played. Many factors play a part in this trend but a few of the main
contributors are the sustainable improvement to the course conditions, positive golfer
experience with regular referrals and restructuring of the membership options.
The course has maintained the current rate structure for many years and has not increased rates
in the past decade. To increase profitability and maintain financial responsibility, staff is
proposing an increase in membership rates and golf course fees. The proposed increase is not
substantial but will assist in addressing escalating costs.
Although the cost of doing business such as gas, materials and supplies has continued to rise, our
rates have not increased. Furthermore, employee costs have risen with minimum wage
increasing from $5.15 to $7.25. Relying heavily on part-time staff, this is a significant cost that we
must address in budget preparation. Staff believes we must begin to recoup these rising cost to
sustain the improving standards the course now realizes. Prior year course conditions have not
merited an increase but our product and current state justify this rise in fees. This rate adjustment
will also allow us to maximize the limited available rounds of golf the course can accommodate.
Many members and golfers are supportive of this increase if it continues to allow staff to
maintain the conditions and golf experience they currently enjoy. Although staff is aware of
possible turnover due to the increase, previous changes to the membership options allow for a
variety of choices to fit a diverse array of patrons.
MARKET SURVEY:
In preparation of the FY 2013-2014 OPGA budget, staff conducted a market survey to identify
industry standards and compare surrounding golf facilities' fee structures. Rates at Bailey Ranch
Golf Course are about average among all courses but rank lowest of all the comparable
facilities. Staff believes we must begin to align the rates with other high end courses as
highlighted in the following market survey.
