Sounds good. It will be a good idea for us to give some thought to
including in the contract that the building has to be left in the
condition it was found, specifically, the kitchen, bathrooms and main room
must be clean, and the chairs/tables put back the way they were found.
We might consider taking a frefundable deposit for this. Once we have done
the inspection, we can give back the deposit. The amount should be the
amount it would cost to have the place cleaned. We could take a check,
not deposit it, and give it back once the inspection is passed. Some or
all of this...

Good evening Board.
The building insurance process is wrapping up, and the building is
starting to come alive.
There are still small maintenance items that need to be handled, and
we are still waiting on more quotes for work to come in for the bigger
ticket work.
I was approached at the Halloween party, and prior to the party as
well, with interest on renting the building for events.
Since we have our next general membership meeting on November 13, and
Board meeting on November 20,, I think we need to handle this topic
through email.
Today is Wednesday, and I thought it was important for someone to make
a few phone calls, search the Internet, etc. and come up with dollar
amounts other entities charge for renting something comparable to our
facility. Then based upon that research, come up with suggestions for
what we should charge. I would request this information by the end of
this coming weekend.
I have asked Angela Michael to take on this important task. And it
seems she has begun the process prior to my request…awesome.
I am adding a bit of my thoughts on this subject below:
A few things we have going for us is the fact rental would be for the
entire building, and the grounds it sits on. The playground next door
is a wonderful extra, but if anyone wanted to put things on the
playground grounds, that would have to go through Parks and Rec…we
would have contact information on the agreement.
We could have Members and Non-members pricing.
We could have a small “kitchen use” fee, something like $10, since we
would have to keep it clean.
We could have a x hours for $y an hour with one free hour rental once
you reach z hours of rental. For example, 4 hours rental at $25 an
hour and get the 5th hour free. Add in the kitchen use fee and it
would be $110 total rental. If renting for 3 hours, it would be $25 an
hour for a total of $75 (if the renter did not want the kitchen).
Those are just numbers I threw out there so you understand what I am
saying.
Thanks for listening.
Rodney
