CITY OF RIVERDALE
CITY HALL ROOM RENTAL RULES AND REGULATIONS
1.Qualified Renters. The room may be rented only by adults aged 18 years and older. Any person or group who has previously caused damage to City property shall not be a qualified renter.
2.Advance booking and deposit. Renter must submit the rental agreement and full rental fee and deposit (unless waived) to secure the reservation.
3.Reservation policy. One-time reservations are generally accepted on a first-come, first served basis; however, recurring reservations are permissible. Note that recurring reservations
may be bumped at the city's discretion, upon at least two weeks’ notice if another qualified renter has requested a rental date that conflicts with a recurring reservation and the other
qualified renter cannot use an alternate date. A recurring reservation is a standing reservation at intervals of twice monthly or greater frequency made by the same renter for the same
purpose. Riverdale will notify the recurring reservation renter of a bumped reservation by phone or mail.
4.Cancellation policy. If renter decides to cancel the reservation, a 48-hour courtesy notification is appreciated. If the renter fails to notify the city in a timely manner, the city
may choose, at its sole discretion, not to refund the deposit and may consider denial of future room use.
5.Hours of use. The room is open for use from 6 a.m. to 12:00 a.m. All events at the room, including clean up, must end by 12:00 a.m.
6.Maximum capacity. The community room has a maximum capacity of 124; council chambers has a maximum capacity of 71. Renters may not host more than this number of people in the room.
7.Insurance. At its sole discretion, the city may require the renter to obtain and show evidence of insurance for an event before approval of a reservation. Proof of insurance coverage
will be required for all rentals serving alcohol. Evidence of insurance must accompany any request to allow consumption of alcohol. If such insurance is required, the city shall be named
as an additional insured (not as a certificate holder). Such insurance shall provide coverage in the sum of at least $300,000 per occurrence.
8.Clean up. Renter is responsible for leaving the room and equipment in the same condition it was in prior to the event. All garbage cans in the room, kitchen (if applicable), and bathrooms
should be emptied outside in the city dumpster. If a room is left in unacceptable condition, based on staff inspection and evaluation, renter will forfeit all or part of the deposit.
If the cost of cleaning exceeds the amount of the deposit, renter is fully liable for the complete actual cost of cleaning, including carpet cleaning. The estimated cost of carpet cleaning
for the room is $300, although the actual cost may exceed this estimate.
9.Damage and keys. Renter is responsible for timely return of the security card and any damage to the room or equipment incurred during the event. If the facility or equipment is damaged
during renter’s use of the room, or if any property is stolen or missing from the room, renter will forfeit the deposit to the extent of the damage or missing property.
Renter should inspect the room immediately upon entering and report any existing damage to the city. If no damage is reported within 15 minutes of renter’s rental period, all damage
existing at the end of renter's rental period will be assessed to renter. If the damage exceeds the amount of the deposit, renter is fully liable for the complete cost of replacement.
The city is under no obligation to tender any claim for damage to its insurance carrier, though it may do so at its own discretion. If the security card is not returned immediately
following the event, the deposit will be forfeited and renter will be responsible for any charges incurred by the city with regard to the security card, including replacement of the
security card.
10.Alcohol policy. City council must approve any alcohol use in advance of renter’s event. The city reserves the sole right to deny the use of alcohol at any event for any reason. If
the city grants renter permission to have alcohol at the event, it may assess an additional deposit. Renter must ensure any and all availability and consumption of alcohol is in compliance
with local, state, and federal laws. Renter is responsible for the behavior and well-being of their guests. As expressed in the room rental agreement, renter acknowledges and agrees
that the city is not responsible for any injury or illness to renter, or renter’s property, or guests. The consumption of alcohol is limited to the room. No alcohol may be taken into
common areas of the premises. Only beer and wine may be served. No hard liquor or kegs are allowed. The sale (directly or indirectly) of alcohol is expressly prohibited.
11.Smoking. No smoking is allowed in the room, the building, or on the grounds of City Hall.
12.No commercial or profit-making activities. The room is not available for for-profit events, except that a school may operate classes in the room, and Council-approved nonprofit fundraisers.
Renter may not charge admission to an event and may not sell food, alcohol, or other items without Council approval. Renter must limit use of the room to the stated purpose in the Room
Rental Agreement.
13.Cleaning/damage deposit and return. A deposit (unless waived) is due when renter submits the Room Rental Agreement. The city will return the deposit via check sent United States Postal
Service after the event if renter fully complies with these rules and regulations and the terms and conditions set forth in these documents.
