Ample parking will be provided, serving both the golf course patrons and riding club track and arena users. Long range plans also call for picnic areas to be established near the new stable location The new golf facility will in- elude acompletely automatic? sprinkling system, which will eliminate the heed for daytime watering of the course and also reduce labor costs for maintenance. The sprinkling system is expected to be one of the best systems in the state. In a discussion of the course, Mr. Williams noted that although the proposed site has some limitations, it is a good site and offers the best rotation available. As an additional advantage, Mr. Williams plans to utilize existing ground cover. The new course will give the appearance of a nature golf course when open for play, withBoxEldersandWIUows combining with young trees to provide a pleasant outlook and will not give the Impression that the golfer is playing on a "grassy meadow." Mr Williams has had extensive experience in designing numerous golf courses during his professional career. One of his current projects is completion of a lf acre course four and which he designed fdr President Nixon at the San Clemente White House. Mr. Williams utilized site possibilities to design an excellent rotation, permitting several foursomes to play the small course at the same time. Having received his education one-ha- in Utah and having worked for golf courses in the Salt Lake area, Mr. Williams is well aware of the problems encountered in this climate. He is a graduate of Brigham Young University, receiving a B. S. degree with two majors in Botany and Agronomy. The architect will provide actual technical supervision during the construction phase of the project, and will make 20 visits to the site during this period to make certain that work is proceeding as planned. His fee will be paid according to the contract schedule, with the final $2,500 to be paid upon completion of the facility. The design approval and work on the golf course will be under the direct supervision of a seven man committee to be approved by the three communities.
