GOLF COURSE NAME CHANGE
July 11, 1997
Prior to the golf course opening, a representative of the management company then employed
suggested the name "Bailey Golf Ranch" as opposed to one of the more common public course
names: golf course, golf club, golf links, or golf resort. Presumably, he felt such a unique
name would set us apart or possibly give us a marketing niche. However, the name often causes
confusion for those not familiar with our course. People often ask us if we even have a course
or if it is a regulation or championship course. Experience has proven that the name "Golf
Ranch" seems to carry a connotation of a driving range or non -regulation course and sometimes
an image of batting cages, putt -putt, and video arcade. In fact, the only "golf ranches" that I
am aware of in existence are driving range/teaching/practice facilities, such as Tee Town Golf
Ranch in Tulsa.
In a meeting of the Golf Advisory Committee on February 11, 1997, several options and
possible ramifications of a name change were discussed which would better reflect the course
from a marketing standpoint. It was discussed that if the name was changed, any
recommendation would have to go to the Owasso Public Golf Authority for action and that, if
such a course of action were taken, the same logo would continue to be used and "Bailey Ranch"
would be incorporated into any name chosen. In a subsequent meeting of the Golf Advisory
Committee on March 11, 1997, several different names were discussed and the name "Bailey
Ranch Golf Club" received consensus approval. It was discussed that "Golf Club" is the
common name associated with upscale daily fee courses open to the public. The committee
agreed that this name would best market the course to its target customers - golfers seeking a
high quality, well maintained, championship golf course.
In the past month, I have discussed this possible name change with Mr Roy Cartwright, a
representative of the Bailey Foundation (the private trust that donated the land for the golf
course). The name "Bailey Ranch Golf Club" was presented to the Bailey Foundation Board
of Trustees and received consensus approval, pending approval by the OPGA.

MINUTES OF REGULAR MEETING
TUESDAY, FEBRUARY 11, 1997
The Owasso Golf Advisory Committee met in regular session on Tuesday, February 11, 1997
at the Bailey Golf Ranch Maintenance Facility, 10230 E 86th St N, per the Notice of Public
Meeting and Agenda posted on the City Hall bulletin board at 4:00 p.m. on Wednesday,
February 5, 1997.
ITEM 1: CALL TO ORDER.
Chairman Sokolosky called the meeting to order at 5:02 p.m. Members present: Ed Sokolosky,
Pat Woods, Cloyd O'Dell, Ted VanCuren. Members absent: Katheryn Holman. Staff present:
Warren Lehr and Tim Lampton.
ITEM 2: REQUEST APPROVAL OF MINUTES OF JANUARY 14, 1997 REGULAR
MEETING.
' Ms Woods moved, seconded by Mr VanCuren, to approve the minutes as printed.
AYE: Woods, VanCuren, O'Dell, Sokolosky
' NAY: None
Motion carried 4-0.
' ITEM 3: GENERAL DISCUSSION AND UPDATE ON GOLF COURSE ISSUES.
January rounds of play and revenue were up despite the bad weather. An information sheet on
' rounds of golf played at Tulsa area golf course during 1996 was distributed. There was
discussion on a fee charge to tournament groups from outside Owasso when they bring their own
food and beverage. Other items discussed were the city vehicle being driven on the course and
' rangefinders from Bushnell. Mr Lampton updated the committee on the streets in developments
surrounding the golf course, including wind fence and silt fence requirements; discussion with
the Public Works Department in put the Maintenance Building on the city sewer system; and
current fertilizer and herbicide applications.
ITEM 4: UNFINISHED BUSINESS.
r None.
ITEM 5: NEW BUSINESS.
There was discussion concerning the name "Bailey Golf Ranch". It is believed that the name
"Golf Ranch" sometimes sends the wrong marketing message, with people perceiving it to be
a driving range, mini -golf course, etc. The possibility of a name change was discussed, with
several names being suggested - Bailey Ranch Golf Club, The Links at Bailey Ranch, The Golf
Club at Bailey Ranch, Bailey Ranch Golf Course, and Bailey Ranch Golf Links. If the Advisory
Committee believes that the name should be changed, any recommendation would have to go
to the Owasso Public Golf Authority for action. If such a course of action is taken, the same
logo would be used, and "Bailey Ranch" would be incorporated into any name chosen.

ITEM 3: GENERAL DISCUSSION AND UPDATE ON GOLF COURSE ISSUES.
The following items were discussed:
1. A "Range Pass" or "Range Ball Membership" was discussed because of customer
requests for such a program. The "membership" was discussed in terms of price for
residents, non-residents, and patrons. The consensus of the committee was that the lower
price should be offered to patron cardholders, regardless of residency status. A possible
rate structure discussed was $150 a year for patrons, $250 a year for non -patrons, and
$200 a year for Owasso residents who are not patrons.
i2. Mandatory cart use period was reviewed. There was discussion regarding relaxing or
moving from 1:00 p.m. to 11:00 a.m. the cut-off for requiring electric cart rental on
weekends and holidays for the following reasons.
(a) Would reach an expanded market of golfers (walkers and riders) at a time
' (11:00 a.m.) when "no-shows" begin to occur more frequently
(b) Offer a morning alternative for those who prefer to walk as a cost savings or
when they play for exercise

were purchased, but hopes to upgrade to point -of -sale computer upon moving into a permanent

MEMORANDUM
TO: THE HONORABLE CHAIR AND TRUSTEES
' OWASSO PUBLIC GOLF AUTHORITY
FROM: WARREN LEHR, DIRECTOR OF GOLF
SHERRY BISHOP, DIRECTOR OF FINANCE
RON CATES, CITY ATTORNEY
SUBJECT: REQUEST FOR OPGA TRUSTEE APPROVAL OF GOLF
CLUBHOUSE DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT
DATE: July 11, 1997
BACKGROUND:
' For the past two years, there have been discussions between the staff, the Larkin Bailey
Foundation and a land developer relating to the construction of a golf clubhouse facility at Bailey
' Ranch. Early this year, a concept was outlined which appears to make the construction of a
clubhouse a very realistic possibility.
Based on that initial concept (related to you in the March 7 City Manager's Report), a meeting,
attended by Roy Cartwright, J N Witt, Pete Kourtis, Brooks Pittman, Sherry Bishop and Warren
Lehr, was held on March 13 to discuss whether there was interest in further developing the
concept. All discussions proceeded positively, and Ron Cates subsequently began work on
drafting the concept into a form that all three parties - the developer, the Bailey Trust, and the
OPGA - could agree to and sign. On May 14, a "Development Agreement" was submitted by
Mr Cates and distributed to Mr Cartwright, Mr Kourtis, Ms Bishop and Mr Lehr. This
agreement (copy attached) was discussed in detail in a meeting held on May 27 and attended by
Roy Cartwright, J N Witt, Pete Kourtis, Bland Pittman, Ron Cates and Warren Lehr. Some
changes were suggested and a second draft of the concept produced by Mr Cates was submitted
to Mr Cartwright, Mr Kourtis, Ms Bishop and Mr Lehr. A subsequent meeting between Mr
Cates and Bailey Trust attorney Ted Reisling resulted in a suggestion by Mr Cartwright that a
meeting be held at the Battle Creek Golf Course clubhouse to review the nature and scope of the
construction. Such a meeting was held on June 12 and attended by Mr Cartwright, Mr Witt,
Ms Patsy Cravens, Pete Kourtis, Bland Pittman, Brooks Pittman, Warren Lehr, and Larry
Christian, the contractor who built the clubhouse at Battle Creek. Discussions focused on
desired goals and differences to be strived for in a Bailey Ranch clubhouse and approximate
costs and timetables for such a project.
Based on the above -described discussions and the agreed -to concept, Mr Cates has developed
' a final draft of the "Development Agreement" and submitted such to the Bailey Foundation and
Mr Kourtis for their action. The Bailey Foundation has taken action to approve the document,
CLUBHOUSE CONCEPT REPORT
JULY 11, 1997
PAGE 2
and have executed the agreement. Mr Kourtis has submitted the document to his attorney for
a final review and expects to sign the agreement as soon as that review is completed.
The proposed development agreement is attached for your review and consideration.
COMMENTS:
Conceptually, this three -party partnership should produce a clubhouse asset for the OPGA at no
cost to the Authority, produce a tax benefit to the Bailey Foundation, and provide an enhanced
sales environment to the land developer. If it succeeds, it will be a win -win -win situation for
all.
The time is certainly "ripe" for the construction of a clubhouse which would produce a greatly
enhanced environment for the growth of the Authority's business at Bailey Ranch. The
clubhouse would be designed in such a way as to accommodate meetings and events of various
types, as well as provide a greatly improved atmosphere for regular play, business
entertainment, corporate outings, charity events, and tournaments. Within the guidelines of this
concept, a clubhouse could be constructed without incurring any debt for the citizens of Owasso
or requiring any contributions from taxpayers or golf course users. The Authority will,
however, be assuming responsibility for funding the future operation of the facility.
CONCEPT SUMMARY:
1. The developer purchases land from the foundation earlier than property is actually needed '
for his schedule of development (approximate cost of the property is $500,000).
2. The foundation would then commit the entire $500,000 to the construction of a golf course '
clubhouse on OPGA property, located where the master plan anticipated its construction.
3. The OPGA provides the property and staff resources to coordinate the design and '
construction of the facility. _
4. An architectural committee is formed, comprised of three Bailey Foundation
representatives, one land developer representative, one OPGA representative, the City
Manager, City Golf Director, City Treasurer, and one member of the Golf Advisory
Committee.
5. The architectural committee is charged with selecting an architect, approving design,
selecting the construction contractor, and monitoring construction.

6. The project would then be funded by the Bailey Foundation and payments made to the
' contractor by the foundation so as to avoid additional expense of bonding and bidding
requirements that would be required if the OPGA built the facility.
' 7. Upon completion of the clubhouse, the foundation would donate the building to the
OPGA/City. Acceptance of the facility would be based upon three conditions; 1) No liens
on the project, evidenced by lien waivers from all contractors and suppliers, 2) structure
' meets design criteria and specifications as established by the selected architect and
architectural committee, and 3) a one-year maintenance bond to the OPGA from the general
' contractor.
8. The land developer would receive office space (of a size to be negotiated) in the structure
for use as a sales office for a period of five years or until all lots on property contiguous
to the golf course property are sold, whichever comes first.
' 9. The Bailey Foundation has indicated a desire for the OPGA to contribute to the project by
constructing a parking lot. However, such expenditure would erode the already
underfunded debt service reserves. The negotiating team has agreed to seek innovative and
' creative funding solutions for the parking lot construction, however, no commitments have
been made for the city or OPWA to contribute funds to this construction project.
RECOMMENDATION:
' The staff recommends Trustee approval of the proposed development agreement and that the
Chair be authorized to execute the agreement on behalf of the Authority.
