Village considers standard park rental fees, insurance and cleaning rules
Summary
Trustees discussed a consistent fee schedule for park facilities — proposals included $75/day to rent the kitchen, $25/day for bathroom fees and insurance requirements for events that sell alcohol — and asked the finance committee to draft contract language.
Trustee Broccardo and Trustee Paso told the board they had been asked by community members to set consistent park rental fees and cleaning responsibilities. Proposed elements included a $75 daily fee for kitchen rental, $25 for bathroom access, proof of insurance for large events and a one-time cleaning deposit refundable upon satisfactory cleanup. "If you want to go down and have a kids birthday party then go," Paso said, adding the policy should differentiate small family use from large gatherings that require more oversight.
Concern centered on how to ensure cleanliness and limit Village liability: trustees debated whether to require a cleaning deposit, hire a cleaning service, and include provisions for alcohol with additional insurance or one-day liquor-license requirements. Trustees asked the finance committee to draft clear contract language for adoption at a future meeting.
