There is created and established upon the effective date of
this chapter a municipally owned utility to be known as the "Municipal
Golf Course of the Township of River Vale" (the "Golf Utility"), commonly
known as the "River Vale Country Club." The authorized operations
of the Golf Utility shall consist of the operation, management, control
and maintenance of the River Vale Country Club and all extensions
and improvements hereafter made thereto, together with all services
relating to such purposes, including the billing and collection of
daily and membership fees.
The Mayor is authorized to appoint an individual or entity who
shall be responsible for the day-to-day administrative operations
of the Golf Utility, including proposing the annual budget for the
Golf Utility and making recommendations to the Township Council regarding
membership and daily rates and charges, the classification of users,
general policy oversight of Golf Utility administration and operations
and the review and investigation of grievances. The salaries of the
employees or appointments of the Golf Utility shall be paid from the
Golf Utility Fund.
All moneys derived from the operations of the Golf Utility and
other moneys applicable to its support shall be segregated and kept
in a separate fund, known as the Golf Utility Fund, and treated as
moneys held in trust for the purposes for which the Golf Utility was
created. Moneys in the Golf Utility Fund shall be applied only to
costs of the Golf Utility or as otherwise permitted by law and shall
be accounted for in accordance with the Local Budget Law and the Local
Bond Law.
The budget of the Golf Utility and the appropriations and disbursements
from the Golf Utility Fund shall be in compliance with the Local Budget
Law and other applicable law.
To the extent that any previous ordinance or resolution is inconsistent
with or contradictory hereto, said ordinance or resolution is amended
or repealed to the extent necessary to make it consistent herewith.
