Family Golf Project (Doug Philbin)

A Special Meeting of the BMGC Board was held to discuss the Family Golf Project. The Project is expected to go back to the Pasadena City Council later this year seeking approval to move forward.
Craig Kessler, SCGA Director, Public Affairs, and Kevin Fitzgerald, Public Affairs, SCGA addressed the board. Craig, acting as an intermediary for the RBOC, asked to meet with the Board to clarify the Board’s concerns and to determine if we are willing to work with the RBOC to resolve some or all of the Board’s concerns regarding the Project, and to outline next steps.
Craig believes the Family Golf Project should move forward as it preserves 36 holes of municipal golf (the SCGA’s primary objective) and the Project is golf related (expanded driving range, new driving range technology and mini golf).
According to Art, the Greens Committee met and reports that the RBOC has already secured a course architect, committed to maintaining par and yardage for both courses in connection with the Project.
After Craig and Kevin left the meeting, discussion ensued. Motion: The Board empowers and authorizes a group of 3 individuals including the current BMGC President, the current 1^st Vice-President, and the most recent past President to meet with the RBOC to discuss BMGC’s concerns regarding the Family Golf Project as outlined in BMGC’s July 10, 2023 letter to the Pasadena City Council. The 3 individuals are empowered to represent BMGC in the discussions with the RBOC to resolve the club’s concerns. They shall report back to the Board for final consideration of any proposed remedies and approval to provide a BMGC statement of “support” for the Family Golf Project to the City Council at the appropriate time. Motion approved.

SCGA Delegate Report (Art Longoria)

In an e-mail to all board members on July 8, Art forwarded a humorous report from the SCGA regarding the use of the term “golfing” vs. “playing golf.” Golf is not a verb. For example, you don’t “football” and you don’t “tennis.” You play football and you play tennis. The SCGA report concludes: Regardless of how the term “golfing” is used, what’s more important is the fact that more and more people are now playing golf. It doesn’t really matter how we describe it.

Family Golf Project: Design phase will take 8-10 months; Code requirements for emergency evacuation will discourage a 2-tier driving range; Water restriction of 20% is still the goal; public comment phase completed; next phase is to respond to public comment; approval set to go to the RBOC board in the first week of May to move forward with the design phase; if approved, RBOC will go before the City Council seeking funding; if approved, the design phase can then be started.
BMGC’s official position on the Family Golf Project: None yet. Club’s primary concern: Maintain the par for both courses (i.e., 72 for Course #1, 70 for Course #2).

Buddy reports that the Club has received membership dues year-to-date that are average for this time of the year. Team Play expenditures are below budget. Director green fees are about average for the year. Rules Committee expenditures are within budget.
Buddy reported regarding a BMGC credit card. Bank of America can put a limit on sub-credit cards, but not on the main credit card. The benefits of a credit card include 3% cash back and fraud protection: If sub-card holders incur fraudulent charges, there is fraud protection. For fraudulent charges incurred by the main card holder, there is no fraud protection. However, if a police report is filed regarding fraudulent charges incurred on the main card, the bank can reverse the fraudulent charges.
Motion to authorize the treasurer of the club to obtain a Bank of America credit card. The main card (the card held by the treasurer) will have no spending limit (up to the credit limit of the account), and the sub-card holders will have a $3,000 spending limit. After discussion, the motion was unanimously approved.

Brookside Men’s Club Board Meeting

6PM – February 15, 2023

Attendees: D. Philbin, B. Grazioli, S. Anderson, R. Moore, V. Buxton, M. Pero, R. Marthe

Absent: E. Kelly (with proxy to Doug Philbin); B. Barker; A. Longoria; E. Sayer

President’s Report (Doug Philbin)

The RBOC held a Public Comments meeting on February 1, 2023 to discuss the planned Family Golf Project – a Family Putting Course adjacent to the west side of the proposed expanded driving range. Doug Philbin spoke as President of the club. While BMGC did not endorse or oppose the proposed project a number of concerns were raised including: preserving the integrity of both courses at current Par, maintaining a short game practice area, providing places for First Tee and general golf instruction, keeping range fees in line with other municipal properties, increasing available close-in parking, safety, returning a significant portion of any money made to the golf course and related facilities for much needed capital improvements and deferred maintenance. Doug emphasized a key goal of BMGC is to ensure that the par for each Brookside course not be changed. Doug reported on the estimated timeframe of the project: Public comment period ends 3/3/23; RBOC will respond to public comments, then there will be an RBOC board meeting in April. The RBOC will then decide whether to go forward. The RBOC approved plan will then be presented to the Pasadena City Council in May 2023. Should the project be approved the RBOC will then seek funding for the next phase.
Rich Marthe also attended the February 1 meeting and commented that the meeting was well-attended including attendance by the Arroyo Seco Foundation, RBOC, BMGC, SCGA, a Pasadena City council member, and neighbors. The neighbors were very clearly against the project.
Bottom line: This project will evolve. BMGC position: Continue to advocate on behalf of the golf course.

Secretary’s Report (Matt Pero)

Minutes from the January 2023 board meeting were approved.

Treasurer’s Report (Buddy Grazioli)

The Club remains in solid financial position with adequate reserves.
Buddy discussed moving from checks, cash and credit card transactions to all on-line or credit card transactions. This will make his job much easier.
Bank of America recommended to Buddy a credit card for BMGC, that provides 3% cash back. That 3% cash back could be a good source of club revenue to sustain existing member services.
Motion to authorize treasurer and three other officers to carry a credit card as opposed to a debit card, with a $3,000 spending limit. After discussion, the motion was approved.

Any new member inquiries are being referred to the Team Captains. All three teams are facing tougher competition this year and it will take a few road wins in the closing matches for each to secure playoffs berths. The regular season ends on March 4th and playoffs will begin in mid-March.

BMGC PRESIDENT’S MESSAGE: Late last week it was brought to the BMGC President’s attention that there were inquiries from a few of the Club & Class players regarding their scores that were taken into consideration in calculating their Club Index. After further review it was determined that scores that were posted from years back may have been included in the calculation and it was difficult to view these actual scores. It was decided to forgo the implementation of the Club Index for the June 2018 Club & Class tournament and that all players would use their Low Index. The President of the Brookside Men’s Club reiterated that we remain committed to using the Club Index for future BMGC tournaments and that the responsibility and implementation of any tournament handicap adjustment will remain with the BMGC Handicap committee. It was further reinforced that any inquiries to or by the BMGC Board members in this regard must be directed to the Handicap Committee for resolution.

We will face a challenge with the 2018 renewal process.

- December 13, Sunday, Course 1, 9:00 a.m., straight time
- Lunch and awards presentation will be from 1:30 p.m. until 4:00 p.m. in the Mediterranean Room on Saturday, December 12.
- Lunch can be provided by the Club for players and their wives.
- Lunch will cost approximately $25.00 per person.

We can charge each player the regular green fee or add $10.00 per player and the Club will pick up the rest.
- Menu has a lot of options. We can have ribs/chicken with 3 salads and beans and corn on the cob or it can be changed to fit our budget.
- We now have it reserved for 120 people, which at $25.00 per person would come to $3,000.
- A savings of up to $2,000 for the Club, and more if we add $10.00 to the entry fee.
- If we have 68 players for the event this year, plus wives, we could very well get 100 or more people to attend.
