Clean-Up/Damage Deposits
In addition to the permit fee, community center rentals, mass picnic facility rentals and park rentals for special events are subject to a clean-up/damage deposit. At community centers, the reservation permit is $50. If the event involves serving food, there is an additional $100 cleanup deposit. For the other two categories, the deposit varies and is based on the number of people expected to attend the event.
The clean-up/damage deposit will be refunded if the site is left clean, in good order and with no damage or theft of city property.
