Review of Last Months Meeting Minutes
Agenda:
1 ) Mr. Pozzi proposed etiquette sign to be posted on the 1st and 10th
tees. Issues that were discussed were: Carts on or near Tees and
Greens, Raking of Bunkers, and Dress Code. Mr. Thornton suggested
a reminder card be placed in the front of the carts . Depending
on future negotiations with EZ GO there may or may not be
plastic holders on carts . The Advisory Board agreed that a sign
in the suggested areas would suffice.
2) Rob Haas has implemented a program to rope off all areas around
the greens to protect the playable areas . This should also help
with the poor course etiquette that is frequently observed.
Ranger and Grounds crew will replace marker that have been taken
out of ground.
3 ) Mr. Pozzi will contact Miami Shores Elementary and Miami Country
Dade schools to inform them of dangers of children trespassing
onto the golf course. A letter will also be submitted to the
Dade County Public Schools for their records .
4 ) Joseph Schwartz suggested that some wind screens either be purchased
or patched up with the same color of current wind screen. Also
the hard courts need to be resurfaced, but another project has
taken precedence over this one. The timing of the .resurfacing
has yet to be determined.
5 ) Membership at this time is up 20 percent from last year and is
a direct result of the marketing efforts toward La Gorce and
Westview members . Other factors that have helped is the much
improved playing conditions on the golf course and better service
from the various departments.
6) The Drink person on the Weekends will now arrive at 8:00a.m, in
the morning and be on the golf course at 8: 30a.m.
7) Compliments to the Maintenance Staff from the Advisory Board! ! !
