Golf Commission - June 10, 2026

The City of Murfreesboro Golf Commission held a meeting on June 10, 2026, focusing primarily on golf operations, facility updates, and revenue management. Key procurement-related discussions included the acquisition of a new fleet of golf carts received in February 2026, which improved operational reliability without a rate increase. The commission reviewed participation trends and revenue, noting that Old Fort Golf Course is on track to exceed $3 million in revenue for the first time, with increased rounds played and driving range revenue reaching approximately $220,000. To address rising expenses such as labor, fuel, and range balls, the commission approved a motion to increase fees for bag storage, expected to generate an additional $25,000 to $30,000 in revenue. Additionally, the commission discussed investing approximately $5,000 annually in a new automated online tee time waitlist and reminder system designed to reduce no-shows and recover lost revenue, potentially recouping up to $50,000 annually. Facility updates included maintenance strategies for the Zoysia greens and recognition of the golf course renovation by national golf publications. No other motions or contract awards were noted during the meeting.
