Hurley — A new lease agreement with the Eagle Bluff County Club will be acted on by the Hurley City Council at its regular monthly meeting on Tuesday evening.
The city of Hurley owns the 18-hole golf course, which is leased and operated by an Eagle Bluff board of directors.
The finance committee of the council, consisting of Rob Lanctoe, Joanne Bruneau and Steve Lombardo, will discuss a new lease agreement and make a recommendation before it is acted on by the full council.
The golf course board previously paid $10,000 annually as part of the lease agreement, but in some lean years the payments were delayed.
The council meeting is scheduled for 6:30 p.m., with the committee meetings to begin at 6 p.m. at city hall.
Also on the agenda is a letter from the Iron County Non-Motorized Trail Committee requesting permission from the city to be named as the grant applicant for additional trail-related funding.
The board will go into closed session near the end of the meeting to pre-qualify contractors for the city’s summer infrastructure project.
City council members previously approved a pre-qualification questionnaire for contractors who will bid on the 2017 city utility project that will include Copper Street improvements, water tank renovations and sewer interceptor upgrades, among other improvements.
