INTRODUCTION
The purpose of this memorandum is to request City Council approval of a new 5-year
lease from Harris Golf Cars for the Bunker Hill Golf Course starting in 2023.
BACKGROUND
The previous 5-year lease expired at the end of 2021. Due to a shortage of new 2022
carts in the industry, a 1-year extension was approved by the City Manager so that the
course was guaranteed golf carts for the 2022 season. An RFP for a new 5-year lease
to start in 2023 was promoted and available on the City website in April. Staff received
1 proposal from Harris Golf Cars (Harris) on May 13, 2022. If awarded, this would be
their 4t" straight 5-year lease with the City.
DISCUSSION
Staff is confident in their recommendation to begin another 5-year lease with Harris.
Harris is a local Dubuque based company with a national reputation of quality service
and product. Their proven ability to service the carts as well as provide replacements in
a timely and efficient manner has added to the courses' reputation and customer
service level. In FY21 golf cart rentals (10034200-43250) generated $233,088 in
revenue with an expense (10034200- 62747) of $39,507. Based on the advanced lease
agreement for 2023-2027, the new annual cost for all golf carts will be $41,664. As a
major revenue generator for the course and in a time where prices continue to increase,
a minimal 5% increase in cost of this service is highly beneficial to the golf course
operations.
The Park and Recreation Commission has reviewed the proposal and voted on June
14, 2022 to accept the 5-year lease golf carts from Harris Golf Cars. Legal has also
reviewed and approved the agreement.
BUDGETIMPACT
The following chart provides both a 5-year and Annual summary of the operational
expense from the new proposal.
Lease $ Per Cart Total Cars $ Per Month Months 5-Year Total Annual
Past $ 94.00 62 $ 5,828.00 30 $174, 840.00 $ 34, 968.00
Proposed $ 112.00 62 $ 6,944.00 30 $208,320.00 $41,664.00
Increase $ 33,480.00 $ 6,696.00
ACTION REQUESTED
Staff recommends and requests City Council approval of the 5-year lease from Harris
Golf Cars golf carts for the Bunker Hill Golf Course starting in 2023.

Overview of Harris -Golf Cars
Harris Golf Cars evolved from a company founded in 1979 by Terry Harris and his partners,
Vern and Lenny Sindt. The Sindt family had a long background in the motorcycle industry and
were the franchise sellers of Yamaha, Honda, Kawasaki, and other brands. When Yamaha
introduced the golf car into the United States in 1979, the partnership was formed to be the
Yamaha Distributor in Eastern Iowa. The business grew steadily for the next 20 years through
the sales efforts of Terry Harris who was very active with the Iowa PGA Section. In 1999,
Terry bought out the other partners and his son Scott Harris joined the company full time to
head up sales and operations. Also joining the company was Terry's son-in-law Steve Halde-
man, who has a background in accounting and finance. The company relocated to a larger
facility in Peosta, IA at that time.
In 2002, business was growing. Yamaha rewarded the Harris organization with the opportunity
to become the distributor in Northern Illinois and Harris acquired the existing company operat-
ing out of Sugar Grove, IL in the Chicago market. Through increased selling efforts and by of-
fering superior service, Harris has grown the IL market from 5% market share to over 30%
market share in the past 15 years. In 2007, Harris purchased and moved into a larger 14,000
square foot building with a large adjacent storage area to accommodate its growth and has
now expanded to 25,000 square feet of space.
In 2008, Yamaha again approached Harris and offered additional territory in Southern Wiscon-
sin. Harris acquired the distributor location south of Milwaukee in Sturtevant, WI. With 3 loca-
tions forming a triangle, Harris was able to provide a team approach to service covering the
area from all 3 locations. Harris has continued to grow through increased market share in all
of the areas serviced.
Harris has also built a network of dealers throughout their territory. These dealers are able to
offer retail sales and local service to some of the smaller communities throughout the area.
In 2013, Harris again expanded their territory to Western Iowa and Eastern Nebraska. Harris
welcomes the challenge of developing an underserved market and gaining market share
through aggressive sales and exceptional service.

In October 2013, Harris purchased a 34,000 square foot office and warehouse building in
Dubuque, IA which now houses the corporate offices of Harris Golf Cars along with our na-
tional parts warehouse, fleet services, retail showroom, and dealer services.
Over the past 43 years, Harris has grown from selling 100 golf cars per year to now taking de-
livery of over 2,800 new golf cars from Yamaha every year. We have continued to expand our
parts and service departments as well as sales in both fleets and individual retail cars. Reve-
nue has grown steadily over the years and now tops $25 million in annual sales, leasing, parts,
service, and rental revenue. Harris Golf Cars is a very stable company financially and partners
with financing sources from Yamaha Leasing, Wells Fargo Financial, VGM Financial, Dubuque
Bank & Trust, and US Bank.
Harris Golf Cars is an equal opportunity employer and strives to have diversity in the work
force. Harris currently employs 43 full time and 6 part time employees. Through the company
we have 16 factory trained technicians that can repair golf cars on location or in our efficient
work areas at each of our locations for the occasional bigger tasks.
Harris Golf Cars works closely with professional organizations like the Iowa PGA Section, Golf
Course Superintendents Association, and Club Managers Association. Harris provides finan-
cial support to these organizations as well as being active in their events. This keeps Harris in
touch with the industry and builds personal relationships with members. Harris is also an ex-
emplary corporate citizen and contributes to many charitable organizations as well as Universi-
ties and High Schools throughout our territory. We are involved with the Iowa PGA Section
professionals to bring SNAG golf to our elementary students to introduce the game to the fu-
ture golfers so the industry reverses the shrinkage in participants that has been seen in the
past years. We are involved with several Veteran organizations including the GIVE Founda-
tion, Folds of Honor, Patriot Golf Classic, and Wounded Warrior Project to name a few.
One thing that will never be compromised through growth is the attention to each customer
and providing the best service to our fleet customers. The City of Dubuque is a large part of
our success and we are proud to be a long standing partner with the City administration, facility
staff, and continued success of the Dubuque Leisure Services Department.
