09/14/26 Golf Commission

The Town of Fairfield Connecticut Golf Commission held a meeting on September 14, 2026, focusing primarily on operational updates and capital improvement projects related to the town's golf courses. Key procurement discussions included a proposed $800,000 contract to renovate approximately 42 bunkers on the golf course, with plans to complete the work in one fall season. The commission discussed the timing, scope, and funding approval process for this capital project, noting it was not currently included in the 10-year capital plan but would be presented for funding consideration in the next cycle. Additionally, a $650,000 project for driving range netting was mentioned as another upcoming capital expense. The commission also deliberated on policies regarding league membership, non-resident participation caps, and potential fee adjustments to balance revenue generation with resident access. A rules subcommittee was established to develop a code of conduct policy to address recent player conduct issues. No immediate contract awards or vendor selections were made, but the meeting set the stage for future procurement actions related to course improvements and policy updates.
