City to guarantee $175,000 loan for Otter Creek

Otter Creek Golf Course will be getting some repairs and updates. The Columbus City Council approved a resolution to allow the city to act as guarantor for a loan of $175,000 not to exceed 10 years. Jamie Brinegar, the city’s director of finance, explains that the course is owned by the city.

He explains that the course is run by a management board that handles day-to-day operations.

Brinegar noted that the heating, ventilation and air conditioning system are original to the 1960s clubhouse. All are slated to be replaced. In addition, the course is set to see work on drainage and bank stabilization.

Council voted 5-0 to approve. Councilwomen Elaine Wagner and Laurie Booher were absent.
