The city’s three courses produced record numbers during the pandemic, prompting San Jose to look for a long-term operator.
San Jose Mayor Sam Liccardo conceded he is far from being a golf guy, but he still joined the rest of the city council in a vote of confidence for the city’s three public golf courses.
In any event, it was a good turn of events for the courses, two of which had been financial sand traps until, mirroring a nationwide trend. Now, the city is looking for a third-party operator to take over all of them with a long-term lease. Liccardo reiterated some of his previous reservations about getting into a long-term deal based on a single-year turnaround during a pandemic following years of decline. He doublechecked that the city could terminate any agreement early if the numbers took a nosedive. “The worst decisions that are made in any organization are made in good times,” he said.First Tee Silicon Valley
