Board asks for clearer, less-exclusive pavilion rental language
Summary
Select Board reviewed draft pavilion rental rules and agreed to remove wording that appeared exclusive to residents and to clarify cleaning and insurance responsibilities before posting guidelines publicly.
Members reviewed draft pavilion rental rules and raised concerns that the opening language read as exclusive to residents or taxpayers. Several members suggested removing or rewording the sentence that implied exclusive access, and asked staff to clarify that renters must carry their own homeowners insurance for non-town events and to add a definition of "clean and tidy" for enforcement.
The board agreed to rework the top portion of the draft and to return a revised version at the next meeting; one member suggested the pavilion should be treated like the community center for rental purposes and that posted rules should include a short "welcome" language to make the space feel less exclusive.
