DISCUSSION: During the development of the bid proposal to host the 2006 Ryder Cup, the west area of Forest Park was conceived to be used as a large corporate village. Activities would have included merchandise shops, corporate hospitality tents, and fitness trailers for players. Use of the area for patron vehicle parking was not proposed. While the bid was unsuccessful, Colonial Country Club (Colonial) proposes to use the concept of a corporate village as part of their annual golf tournament. This area is identified on the attached map. The specific area is bound by University Drive, Colonial Parkway, Rogers Road, and the Clearfork of the Trinity River. In exchange for the use of this area, Colonial would annually pay $2,500 to the City and donate $22,500 to Streams and Valleys, Inc. (S&V). The funds donated to S&V would be earmarked for park and trail improvements along the Trinity River. On February 26, 2002, a meeting was held with neighborhood representatives, who endorsed the project. The terms and conditions of the agreements that will govern the use of the space were outlined in the March 5, 2002, Informal Report No. 8388. The agreements include an indemnification clause and require that the City be named as a co-insured on Colonial's liability insurance policy. Colonial would be responsible for site preparation and would ensure that the site be returned to pre-existing conditions each year after the 45-day use period.
