RECOMMENDATION It is recommended that the City Council approve the contract with Around the Horn Entertainment LLC in the amount of$75,000. BACKGROUND The Bowes Creek Golf Course and Clubhouse are anticipated to open in the fall of 2009. The clubhouse business plan identifies a similar approach to food and beverage service as being offered in the current Highlands Clubhouse, which is a themed restaurant. The benefit of a themed restaurant is that it attracts regular year around diners and is not solely dependent on golf related business. The determination to create a themed restaurant, the Hickory Stick Bar and Grill, was made after the Highland's clubhouse was designed. As a result, some additional costs were incurred and some elements that would have supported the themed restaurant were not able to be incorporated. To avoid these problems at Bowes Creek, staff is recommending that the City enter into an agreement with Around the Horn Entertainment LLC. Joe Carlucci, President of Around the Horn Enterprises, has extensive experience in the restaurant business as described in his brochure (see attachment). Mr. Carlucci is currently working with PGA National Resort, where they held the Honda Classic in February. His company has also completed the concept for Arrowhead Golf Course in Wheaton, consulted for Medinah Golf Course and Cog Hill Golf Course. They also consulted and developed the concepts for Mike Ditka's Chop House and Dick Clark restaurants. Bowes Creek Restaurant Design March 21,2008 Page 2 The design process for a themed restaurant begins with menu creation, then building elevations, marketing theme and interior design coordination. All interior furniture, fixtures, finishes and equipment will be developed to compliment the theme. The menu will drive the equipment that is purchased for the kitchen and how it is laid out. The Bowes Creek Golf Course project is a partnership between the City and Toll Brothers. The development agreement between the City and Toll requires all contracts to be entered into by Toll with approval by the City except in those instances where the City requests additional services beyond the scope of the original agreement. A similar example would be Randy Trull's project manager contract, which was executed directly with the City. The contract was handled in this fashion to provide direct control in the process so the City's best interests would be represented in all facets of golf course construction. Following the same reasoning, it is the intention to utilize Around the Horn Entertainment LLC to act as the City's representative in the creative design process. Taking advantage of this process will provide the professional expertise and ultimate control over the end result and its impact on future operations. Around the Horn Entertainment was selected through a Request for Services conducted by Toll Brothers Inc. and executed by PHN Architects, the clubhouse architect. Given Around the Horn's experience with themed restaurants and golf courses, utilizing their expertise would be a great benefit to the development and future operations of the Bowes Creek Clubhouse. COMMUNITY GROUPS/INTERESTED PERSONS CONTACTED None FINANCIAL IMPACT The cost of the contract with Around the Horn Entertainment LLC is $75,000. There are sufficient funds budgeted ($1,640,000) and available ($1,528,370) in the Riverboat Lease Fund, account number 276-0000-791.92-32, project number 509687, to fund the contract with Around the Horn Entertainment LLC. LEGAL IMPACT An agreement will be required. Bowes Creek Restaurant Design March 21, 2008 Page 3 ALTERNATIVES 1. The Council may choose to approve the contract with Around the Horn Entertainment LLC in the amount of$75,000. 2. The Council may choose not to approve the contract with Around the Horn Entertainment LLC in the amount of$75,000. Respectfully submitted for Council consideration. ml attachment
