Fairhope City staff presented a revised resolution updating rules, rates and rental procedures for the James P. Nicks Center, which staff say has received renovations and audiovisual upgrades and will use resident/nonresident pricing similar to the Civic Center.
Paige, the staff presenter, told the council the last resolution for the facility dated from 2007 and outlined proposed rental changes including an economy of combining the ballroom base fee and cleaning charge into an eight-hour all-in rate. She said the recommended eight-hour resident rate for the ballroom would be $12.50 and the nonresident eight-hour rate $17.50; the proposal also adds fees for city-recognized holidays and extra hours.
