The City of Thousand Oaks may explore the possibility of building and running its own bowling alley/recreation facility. Given the high cost of land, we are looking at purchasing a site and building our own facility. We are considering setting it up as an Enterprise Fund activity...similar to how we run our public golf course. Do any of your cities operate a public bowling alley? If so, who runs it...city staff or do you have a private operator? Is it self-sufficient? Does it require General Fund subsidies? Do you run it as an Enterprise Fund? How did you get into the bowling alley business? Any advice/warnings for us? If you don't operate a bowling alley, do you know of any city/local government that does? I will share my findings with everyone. Many Thanks!!!
