WROTAW
• We have seen significant improvements in golf course conditions; the warmer, drier and sunnier
days have helped tremendously
• There is a mite infestation on the fairways which affects primarily common Bermuda. It was
treated twice and although it is under control it caused considerable damage on some fairways
• We are planning to resod the fairways where needed and weak areas surrounding greens
starting in mid -march
• Insurance settled the flood claim. Initially the adjustor considered the locker room and pro shop
to be a basement, therefore not covered by the policy. After a survey was done we were able
to prove the outside surrounding area is lower than the locker room and pro shop and thus they
cannot be considered a basement.
• We received a settlement offer of $130,000 after the deductible and depreciation. We are out
of pocket of $15,000 to $17,000 for drying and cleaning cost of damaged equipment. We expect
the carpet replacement to cost an additional $20,000. We recommended to the city manager
that Miami Shores Village keep the balance of the settlement for future repairs
• February has been an excellent month, we are ahead in rounds and revenue, we have had the
highest amount of rack rates ever
