d. The acquisition, construction, maintenance, operation, improvement and development of public golf courses and such facilities and improvements in connection therewith as in the opinion of the board may be reasonably necessary to provide for the full, complete and convenient public use of such golf courses. A county shall not condemn any existing privately owned and operated golf course the acquisition of which is to be financed under this chapter.
e. The acquisition, construction, maintenance, operation, improvement and development of skiing areas. The provisions of this section shall not be construed to authorize a board of supervisors to operate any restaurant, lodginghouse or hotel except during such periods as it is unable to lease such restaurant, lodginghouse or hotel to a private concessionaire. Public notice calling for bids by prospective lessees of such restaurant, lodginghouse or hotel shall be published once a week for four successive calendar weeks, in a newspaper of general circulation, and it shall be conclusively presumed that the board of supervisors is not unable to lease such restaurant, lodginghouse or hotel to a private concessionaire until one week following the last publication has elapsed without securing reasonable bids.
