PARKS AND GOLF COURSEs: The Plan outlines the existing inventory
and standards fi~r thc City -wide park network. This network includes 177
neighborhood park,', 7 district parks, 7 community parks, and 13 golf
courses. This analysis indicates a major success for the City in

handicapped accessible boat launch and swimming facilities.
Mrs. Walston advised in 1988, City Council created a 7/10 cents tax increase to promote open space.
Through this effort, new parks have been created, the deficit for park land has been eliminated in some
areas of the City and Scenic waterway systems have been addressed In the fUture, this fUnding will be
leveraged on an annual basis even fUrther through grants, public/private partnerships and other revenue

SUMMARY OF
BRASSIE GOLF CORPORATION ('Brassie')
Brassie is a publicly traded capital stock corporation, presently with 220 employees. It
was organized in 1988. Although the firm is headquartered in Southport, N.C., a number
of its principals are Canadian and the firm is listed on the Toronto Stock Exchange.
Brassie was formed by Gordon D. Ewart, P.B. Dye, and Allen Jefferson for the purposes
of acquiring, constructing, and operating a portfolio of high quality golf courses targeted
at the daily fee player.
Under the name of "The Gauntlet", Brassie presently fully owns and operates six (6) golf
courses located as follows:
Myrtle Beach, SC
Greenville, SC
Southport, NC
Orlando, FL (two courses)
Corpus Christi, TX
In addition, a seventh "The Gauntlet" course is presently under construction in Stafford
County, VA under circumstances identical to those existing in Virginia Beach--i. e., Brassie
obtained financing, designed (P.B. Dye), and is constructing the golf course at its sole
expense on county-owned property under a long-term lease agreement.
Of particular significance are the golf course design and management components of
the Brassie team. "The Gauntlet" courses constructed by Brassie are designed by either
P.B. Dye or Hale Irwin Golf Design, a wholly owned subsidiary. All "The Gauntlet"
courses are managed by Hale Irwin Golf Management, again a wholly owned subsidiary.
(The Hale Irwin group also manages courses outside the Brassie family.) Of course,
Hale Irwin is one of the most successful and well known PGA Tour professionals. A
touring pro since 1968, he has played in hundreds of tour events in the U.S. and abroad
and is presently among the top 15 ail-time money winners in PGA Tour history. Hale has
earned 19 PGA Tour victories, including three U.S. Open championships.
Brassie's business plan includes an on-going expansion of its portfolio of "The Gauntlet"
courses through both construction of new courses and acquisition of presently existing
quality facilities. At each of its courses, Brassie offers "Master Memberships". Holders
of these memberships enjoy special playing privileges at each of "The Gauntlet" courses.
This encourages such members to travel to the different course locations, a factor which
should complement the city's tourism objectives.

B. EXPERIENCE:
COMPANY OVERVIEW
Brassie Golf Corporation ("Brassie") is in the business of
acquiring, constructing and operating a diversified portfolio of
high quality golf courses targeted at the fastest growing segment
of the golfing market today - the daily-fee player.
Brassie was organized in 1988 by Gordon D. Ewart, P. B. Dye and
Allen Jefferson to assemble a team of business people with golf
management and development experience. Under the name-of "The
Gauntlet", Brassie has completed'two golf courses, the Gauntlet at
St. James, Southport, North Carolina, and the Gauntlet at Laurel
Valley, Greenville, South Carolina. The Company has completed the
acquisition of its third course, late in 1993, The Gauntlet at
Myrtle West, North Myrtle Beach, South Carolina and early in 1994
completed its acquisition of additional courses, two in Florida and
one in Texas. Brassie anticipates constructing and/or acquiring two
to four additional courses in each of the next four years.
Brassie's proven golf course management skills have been
complemented by the Company's ability to attract both senior debt
(NationsBank) and equity financing at advantageous terms on a
project-specific basis.
The Company's efforts are focused exclusively in the U.S. southeast
where demand for quality daily-fee golf continues to exceed the
growth in new facilities. Brassie's courses carrying "The
Gauntlet" signature, feature World Class Architects, and are
differentiated from the competiton by virtue of the Company's
reputation for efficient and friendly service, the condition and
integrity of its courses and the Company's ability to offer a
private Country Club atmosphere to the public on a daily-fee basis
at reasonable prices.
In July, 1993, Brassie became publicly traded on the Toronto Stock
Exchange (Sym: "TEE") and has witnessed a steady climb of it's
share price from $1.60 to in excess of $6.00. Application has been
submitted for the trading of Brassie shares on NASDAQ with an
anticipated approval date of late 1994. The company represents one
of the only liquid alternatives to participating in the dramatic
growth in daily-fee golf courses.
Brassie's significant cash flow results from its proven golf
development and operating expertise, and below-market cost basis
for individual courses. The company continues to implement its
strategy by capitalizing on a trend in public golf course
development whereby residential golf course community developers
and municipalities, often unable, or unwilling in the case of a
municipality, to obtain debt financing for the golf course
component of their development, are providing significant
incentives to a limited group of golf course developers with
credible financial strength and access to "designer label"
architects.
In addition to the development of new courses, Brassie has and will
continue to acquire existing courses whose owners, typically
financial institutions (often in conjunction with RTC) seek to sell
the courses to financially qualified buyers, such as Brassie, with
access to capital and competent course managers. It is Brassie's
stated intention to acquire such assets at a deep discount to their
current replacement cost. Further, the Company pursues third party
management situations where there are opportunities to benefit from
economies of scale and use of "The Gauntlet" name and the services
of its subsidiary, Hale Irwin Golf Management.
To further enhance its reputation, management, and marketing and
design abilities, Brassie has acquired 100% of Hale Irwin Golf
Services, Inc. ("HIGSI"), an international golf course design,
development and management company based in St. Louis, Missouri.
The company was founded by Hale Irwin, PGA Tour professional and
golf course designer and by Richard Stahlhuth, golf course owner
and developer. During the past six years, the company has
completed numerous design projects for country club, resort,
municipal and public courses, located across fourteen states and in
Japan. There are currently 7 design projects in the works at
various stages of development and HIGSI has identified 14 other
active prospects. HIGSI is currently designing the following 7
courses:
·
·
·
·
·
·
·
Cordillera - Edwards, Colorado
The Meadowlands - Winston-Salem, NC
Waterford Golf Club - Rock Hill, SC
Panther Creek Country Club - Springfield, Illinois
Valley Ranch Golf Course - Sun Valley, Idaho
Snowcreek Resort - Chelan, Washington
Cerro Plato - San Jose, California
HIGSI's expertise in the design field is complemented by its
experience in the business of course management. It currently
manages seven golf facilities. The company has developed a state-
of-the-art computer system for cash and inventory control, time
management to monitor course operations on a daily basis, prowiding
clients with comprehensive "real-time" information. Brassie has
also acquired Hale Irwin Golf Learning Centers, a company created
to pursue a progressive design and development strategy for the
American gol~ practice facility of the future. The Learning
Center,s concept is to provide a more professional and all-
encompassing golf teaching and practice facility. The company's
focus is on creating a distinctive atmosphere emphasizing issues
such as etiquette, club selection and mental preparedness, in
addition to the usual topics such as swing mechanics. The National
Golf Foundation predicts the country will experience a continued
increase in demand for alternative "up-market" practice facilities
for the foreseeable future and this acquisition provides Brassie a
complementary diversification to its core golf course development
and management business.
Hale Irwin Golf Services, Inc. ("HIGSI") currently manages the
following 6 golf courses and the W.I. Learning Centre (all the
following 6ourses are located in the St. Louis area unless
otherwise notes):
·
·
·
·
·
·
'Cottonwood Golf Club, Inc.
Fourche Valley Public Golf Association
The Links Course, Highlands Ranch, Colorado
Lakewood Golf Club
The Legacy Golf Course, Granite City, Illinois
Quail Creek Golf Course
Brassie's designer label golf courses, featuring P. B. Dye and Mr.
Hale Irwin as the course architects, have initially been targeted
in locations in the southeastern United States where:
(i)
the region's temperate climate and extended playing
season result in a high number of golf rounds
played;
(ii)
essential population demographics provide more than
an ample supply of golfers;
(iii)
developments of planned residential communities are
continuing and are a key element to Brassie's
strategy of land acquisition; and
(iv)
the region's relatively long growing season is
conducive for accelerating a golf course's
development, which is approximately 12 to 18 months
from ground breaking to full course operation.
BRASSIE GOLF CORPORATION HAS SIX OPERATING SUBSIDIARIES:
I
THE GAUNTLET AT ST. JAMES, INC. -AN 82% OWNED NORTH CAROLINA
CORPORATION WHICH OWNS THE FACILITY IN SOUTHPORT, N.C.
The Gauntlet at St. James is a 200 acre, 18 hole, semi-private
golf course located in the 6,000 acre .St. James Plantation
real estate development, which is 30 miles south of
Wilmington, North Carolina and 35 miles north of Myrtle Beach,
South Carolina. The golf course was designed by P.B. Dye, an
internationally recognized golf course architect. Amenities
include a 16,000 square foot clubhouse, a swimming pool and
two tennis courts with a separate tennis pro shop.
Brassie commenced construction of this course in October 1990
and full service revenue play began in October 1991. The
course generated 30,500 rounds in its first 12 months and
41,000 rounds in the year ending Dec 31, 1993.
The Gauntlet at St. James serves two separate client bases:
the golf vacationer during the months of September through
November and March through May, and local players during June
II
through August and December through February. Brassie
receives approximately 60% of its annual golf course revenues
from the Myrtle Beach tourist trade, with the balance of
revenues drawn from the local resident population.
The Gauntlet at St. James was originally financed in October
1991 with a NationsBank first mortgage loan of $3,750,000 due
in September 1995. The loan balance presently sits at less
than 2.2 million.
THE GAUNTLET AT LAUREL VALLEY, INC. - A 75% OWNED SOUTH

SUMMARY OF DIRECT TAX IMPACTS AND LEASE REVENUE
On an annual basis, the lease payments are graduated beginning with $25,000
when the course opens, increasing to 7% of pre-tax income (plus depreciation)
in years 6 through 30, and 20% of gross revenues over $3.5 million. While
difficult to project, annual revenues could be as much as $100,000 in those years:

31 - 40 25%~0% of gross >
~,500,000
Over the 30 year initial-term, the city could receive lease revenues up to $2.7
million, depending on course profitability.
Direct tax revenues are estimated at $117,000 annually, for a total of $3.5 million
over 30 years.

$199,300 attributable to parks and improvements to Seaboard Road. Based on
estimated taxes alone, payback of the city's golf course investment would occur
in 15 years; including lease revenues, payback is 8 years.

acres and an additional 9,700 acres is federal and state owned
property used for environmental conservation purposes. Only about
3,200 acres of land in this area is actually developed, comprised
mostly of rural dwellings and a small amount of rural commercial
uses.
The basic rural character of the Southern Rural Area is well

established and has not changed very much over time. It is a place
where there is a significant presence of existing agricultural and
other rural-based economic activities. It would be highly

Most of the area is comprised of Land
Management soils. These are Somewhat Poorly, Poorly or Very Poorly
drained soils, as defined in the 1985 issue of the U.S. Soil Survey
for Virginia Beach, and are not suitable for large subdivisions.
29
30
Given these factors, it is logical to conclude that the Southern
Rural Area will remain rural into the foreseeable future and, as
31
32
such, it must rely on sound rural planning principles and effective
economic strategies to help it retain its character and vitality.

Rural Preservation Planning Objectives:
It is the purpose of this Rural Preservation Plan to identif~
appropriate, fair and equitable rural planning policies for the
Southern Rural Area. To this end, the City seeks to achieve the
following five planning objectives.
38
1. Preserve the Opportunity for Continued Agricultural Production.

One of the key objectives of the Rural Preservation Plan is to
provide opportunities for preserving agriculture. Our City's
farmland, both north and south of the Green Line, has dwindled from
about 51,000 acres in 1982 to roughly 30,000 acres in 1993.
Approximately two thirds of all farmland is now located within the
Southern Rural Area. In order to stop or reverse this downward
trend, effective and affirmative agricultural preservation
strategies must be put into place. Agricultural preservation is an
important economic and land use issue. Hence, it is important for
comprehensive planning strateqies to do their part in reinforcing
and promoting .agriculture as much as possible. This Rural
Preservation Plan offers property owners density bonuses for
preserving farmland and rural open space, thus fostering this
objective.
53 2. Preserve the Rural Character
54
55
56
57
58
The intent of the Rural Preservation Plan is just as the name
implies - to preserve the rural way of life for the people who live
there. However, the term "rural character" is somewhat difficult
to define because it conjures up a variety of images. In one
sense, it means very low residential density, surrounded by large

areas of open space, farmland and wooded tracts served by long
stretches of two lane roadways. There are occasional "villages"
with names like Back Bay and Creeds with small concentrations of
houses next to a few shops servinq, in a limited way, the
commercial needs of a rather larqe geoqraphic area. In another
sense, rural character translates into a quieter, less hectic and
more independent way of life, one that is removed from the
congestion, density and fast-paced activities of urban life. While
some growth occurs, it does so without disrupting the lifestyles of
those who have chosen to live here and without forcing the need to
bring in large "urban" type roadways, public water and sewer lines
and sprawling tract development. This plan encouraqes applying
conditional use provisions to promote the development of minimum
rural lot sizes, the preservation of as much remaining rural open
space as possible and combines lot area and soil quality, not road
frontaqe, to determine density potential.
75 3. Protect Environmental Resources
76 Well over half of the total area south of Indian River Road is
77 comprised of water and tidal and non-tidal wetlands. Much of it is

91
located in low-lying floodplain zones, publicly-owned environmental
conservation areas, and areas consisting of poorly drained soils.
These so called "Land Management Soils" are capable of handling
only a very limited amount of new development. It is an important
comprehensive planninq objective to protect all of these valuable
resources against inappropriate activities, especially
overdevelopment. It is sound planning policy to orient rural
residential development away from sensitive environmental resources
to areas consistinq of well drained soils and deeper water tables
that are capable of handling septic systems. This, coupled with
the objective of maintaininq a reasonable overall level of rural
development potential, establishes sound planning policy that
balances the need for reasonable rural growth aqainst its impact on
the surroundinq natural environmental. This plan encourages the
92
93
94
protection of special environmental resources, such as natural
habitats and critical uplands, by offering somewhat higher
densities within rural developments that avoid such areas.
95 4. Provide Reasonable Rural Development Opportunities
96 This Rural Preservation Plan affords reasonable rural residential
97
98
99
100
101
102
103
development opportunities well beyond the 10 or 20 year horizon.
Property owners may choose to develop their land either by-right,
which yields a minimum density, or through a conditional use
approach which may yield a higher rural density and advance
comprehensive planning objectives designed to help save farmland
and open space areas. Rural development potential is based on
land area and soil quality, as opposed to lot frontaqe..~
104 5. Defer Need for Urban Infrastructure
105 The Rural Preservation Plan allows reasonable levels of rural
106
107
108
109
110
111
112
113
114
115
116
117
residential development to continue for many decades and, during
this period, ensures that demand placed on public facilities will
remain at or below what is deemed acceptable for rural communities.
For example, throughout the 1980's and early 1990's, the average
rate of development in this area has been around 30 dwelling units
per year. At this level of rural growth, it will take more than 80
years to reach the point where "urban" public facilities might be
needed. The rate of rural development will be managed in order to
avoid untimely and undesirable impacts on rural public facilities.
The City will annually track rural growth, as measured by the
number of new houses built, to ensure a continued balance exists
between public facility supply and demand for this area.
118
119
120
121
Implementation
The Comprehensive Plan seeks to achieve these objectives by giving
property owners a choice of two rural development options. First,
they may elect to create building lots without going through the
5
122
123
.1.24
125
126
127
:1.28
,1.29
public hearing process (e.g. conditional use). Under this option,
property owners may create one lot for every 15 acres on land that
can support septic systems, provided they meet zoning, health and
other regulatory provisions, as a by right provision of AG1 and AG2
zoning. As an alternative, a conditional use permit, designed to
achieve the five comprehensive planning objectives stated above~
may be obtained for higher rural residential densities provided
proposed developments meet the following.provisions:
130
131
1) Limit the annual rate of development so as to minimize burdens
placed upon the rural public infrastructure.
132
133
134
135
136
137
138
139
140
2) Assign density potential based on land area and soil quality in
the following manner through the use of conditional use permits.
In areas comprising high quality soils (Soil Area #1), maximum
rural residential development is calcualted at 1 dwelling unit for
every 5 acres of land. Within areas of lesser quality soils (Soil
Area #2), this density is calculated at 1 dwelling unit for every
10 acres of land. A map depicting the general location of these
soil areas is available from the Department of Planninq,. Should
site specific differences occur between the location of soils shown
141
142
143
on this map and actual field test results, the City will recognize
as valid such field test findings, when certified by a qualified
soil scientist and confirmed by the Department of Health.
144
145
146
147
148
149
150
151
152
153
3) Incorporate the followinq rural residential guidelines in order
to advance the rural planning objectives of the city:
1. Subdivide residential lots on soils that possess the best
drainage and water table characteristics using the
minimum acceptable lot area necessary to achieve
development objectives.
2. Illustrate the ultimate plan of development, as well as
anticipated development phases, if any.
3. Maximize the area of and avoid fragmenting remaining
farmland and open space.

Whenever possible, plan developments on non-farmland. In
those cases where development is proposed within areas of

Include substantial setbacks, with landscaping, between
dwellings and rural arterial roadways..
Minimize all access points alonq rural arterial roadways..
Provide flag lots, where warranted to advance the purpose
of this plan, taking into consideration the size of the
lots within the subdivision, existing or future tree
cover and other pertinent characteristics relating to the
need for rural residential privacy and open space.

roadway drainage ditches a sufficient distance from the

Provide greater streetlight separation distances than is

Protect land for open space purposes through the use of

or transfer to a stewardship agency (eg. foundations or
conservation groups), or through some other appropriate
means.

developing the rural planning policy.. For example, there is the
need to preserve the rural character and agricultural industry amid
growing pressure to develop this land for other purposes. There is
the need to protect valuable environmental resources while
accommodating new rural residential growth. There is the need to
ensure appropriate rural development opportunities without placing
an undue burden on the rural public facilities and services.

The Comprehensive Plan addresses these needs through two planning
strategies - Transition Area III planning policies and those
identified in the Rural Preservation Plan. Both are described in

planning policies provide opportunities for outdoor recreation, low
density residential and other rurally compatible uses to come
together provided each protects the environment. The Rural
Preservation Plan emphasizes the need to preserve the character of
the rural community and the aqricultural industry., and is designed
to protect the area's environmental resources. This planning
strategy also balances the need to provide local property owners
with reasonable rural development opportunities consistent with the
