Explanation
One (1) Bid (#SA004672 Mentel Memorial Golf Course Food Concessions) was received by the Golf Division on November 20, 2012.
The City has a contract for food concessions with Ricardo's Restaurant, Inc. at Mentel Golf Course currently, a contract which ends December 31, 2015 with two additional renewal options for 2016 and 2017. This contract is a revenue generating contract for the Golf Division and is for three (3) years: 2013-2015 with options to renew on an annual basis for two (2) additional years (through December 31, 2017). By contract, annual rent payments are 2013-$72,000; 2014-$72,000; 2015-$72,000 for years 2013-2015 and $74,000 for 2016 and 2017.
Rounds and customer traffic at the Mentel Golf Course and at the Clubhouse facility have been less than projected and a reduction in payments to the city is requested to be modified as indicated below.
The City and Concessionaire agree to modify their existing contract as follows:
1. The required rent (Section 4) shall be decreased by $9,000 for 2014 for a total annual payment of $63,000; decreased by $16,000 for 2015 for a total of $56,000; $17,000 for 2016 for a total of $57,000 and $16,000 for 2017 for total of $58,000.
