Director of Facilities and Operations North Penn School District To: From: Date: Re: Support Services Committee Thomas Schneider August 2015 Facilities Use Request Policy 1330, Use of Facilities and Equipment establishes the process and procedures how outside groups are able to use or rent North Penn facilities. This policy establishes seven (7) different classes of use definitions. These classes range from district sponsored groups, local governmental groups, nonprofit groups, for profit commercial groups and a class for all other groups. The class for all other groups, Class 7, does not outline fees and requires that the Board of School Directors approve the use and establish the fee for the group. We have been requested to bring forth to the Board a request for a resident, to rent Pennbrook’s cafeteria and auditorium for dance celebration. The group is anticipating 300 to 400 people attending the event. We have provided the residents an estimate based on a non-profit classification which is $25 for 4 hours plus reimbursement of custodial and security personnel. The group has provided proof of liability insurance, naming North Penn School District as additionally insured, for the event. We recommend approval of the facility use contract at a rate of $25.00 per 4 hours.
