FROM: BRUNO RUMBELOW, CITY MANAGER
MEETING DATE: OCTOBER 4, 2022
SUBJECT: GOLF ENTERPRISE FUND APPROPRIATION ORDINANCE AND
AUTHORIZE ESTIMATED EXPENSES TO OPERATE PERSIMMONS
BAR & GRILL WITH MULTIPLE VENDORS
RECOMMENDATION: City Council consider authorization to operate Persimmons Bar & Grill,
with multiple vendors, and Ordinance No. 2022-067 appropriating funds to
the Golf Enterprise Fund.
FUNDING SOURCE: Upon approval of the attached appropriation ordinance, funding will be
available in the Golf Enterprise Fund.
BACKGROUND: This item appropriates $1,718,000 to the Golf Enterprise Fund for the
operation of Persimmons Bar & Grill at the Grapevine Golf Course.
The expenses for which this budget appropriation is based are the first
year expenses of the previous operator, Coury Hospitality.
Anticipated food and beverage revenues are expected to offset
Persimmons annual expenses.
The vendors who we anticipate will be above $15,000 in expenses are as
follows and total approximately $667,000 of the total of $1.7 million;
Food
Ben E. Keith Foods: $210,000
Hardies Fresh Foods: $44,000
Beverages
Andrews Distributing: $56,000
Republic National Distributing: $22,000
Ben E. Keith Beverages: $73,000
Sigel's Beverages: $28,000
Spec's Family Partners: $97,000
Other
Pinnacle Propane: $37,000
Restaurant Ventures Unlimited;
Staffing (providing some key front line staff) : $100,000
The balance of expenditures are mostly for personnel costs to run the
restaurant (the restaurant is open 7 days a week from 7 am to 9 pm) and
other smaller operating expenses. Again, it is anticipated that revenue
earned will offset anticipated expenses and we will keep Council informed
(via an operating summary) on a monthly basis through the Weekly
Update.
This procurement will be made in accordance with Local Government
Code Chapter 252, Subchapter B, § 252.022. General Exemptions (a) (4)
(14), personal, professional or planning services and goods purchased by
the municipality for subsequent retail sale by the municipality.
Staff recommends approval.
