Greywalls Bathrooms

Progress is taking place on the Two flush bathrooms and shelters on the Greywalls course.  Several members came forward to offer their talents in constructing these buildings.  We are very fortunate to have such a supportive, diverse and knowledgable group of members to help us get these projects completed with minimal cost to the club.   
There are no utilities at these two sites because of there remote location; we will have a septic system and will utilize our irrigation system for water.  A variance was needed from the city to allow this set up within the city limits.  The variance was granted but we can not have wash sinks with the water source so hand sanitizers will be located in each restroom stall.  

Below are the stamped architectural drawings

Front nine location
This location is between 4 back tee and 7 green.  A gravel service road will be put in to allow access from two different holes.  

Back nine location
This location is between 15 and 13 tees. Servicing two holes again on the back 9. 

We dug 8 foot holes for the Perk testing.  Both tests were completed and we now have the septic permits.  
Next up is our building group getting the construction permit; then progress can continue with site prep and concrete work before the framing takes place.  
A meeting is scheduled with the septic company tomorrow to get that ball rolling as well.  

We looked at many factors when Choosing a location.  
1.) location free of bedrock to support a septic system - not easy on the front 9
2.) service two different holes
3.) accessible for construction and future maintenance
4.) out of all golf hole sight lines and potential future hole lengthening.  
5.) spread out enough to service properly  

I am putting a lot of thought and work into these buildings, which is never an easy task when trying to manage two 18 hole golf courses as busy as ours.
