Council adopts City Center rental and membership policy, adds weekday and student tiers
The City of White House City Council on July 22 adopted revisions to the City Center rental and membership policy, additions staff said are intended to broaden access and balance community use with cost recovery.

Aaron Martinez (staff) said staff refined the policy to add a new weekday work-plan membership tier that allows access during normal working hours at a lower monthly rate, and introduced a student membership available to residents and nonresidents in grades 8 through college. Staff said the building is planned to be open Monday–Friday roughly 8 a.m.–8 p.m. with potential Saturday hours of about 8 a.m.–noon; after-hours events would incur overtime staffing charges. The policy retains an allowance for two hours of executive conference room use in certain corporate membership packages but removes banquet-hall access from corporate tiers.

Council discussed clarifying written language on rental hours and after-hours charges and confirmed the policy will be cleaned up before public posting. Staff noted the building will use key-fob access tied to responsible adults and will have security cameras; the facility will not be staffed 24/7 and deposits and consequences for damages will apply for rentals.

Council approved the updated policy by motion.
