Set Up and Cleaning Time
The front door will automatically unlock two hours prior to your scheduled event time. Tables and chairs must always remain inside the building. You are allotted one hour after your scheduled rental end time, during which clean-up is required. The front door will automatically lock at the end of this one-hour period. The Community Center must be cleaned and returned to the condition it was in upon arrival. Video footage will be reviewed during regular business hours following your event. Any damage, insufficient cleanup, failure to properly close the facility, or other violations may result in the loss of full or partial security deposit. Accessing the facility prior to your scheduled start time or remaining beyond the one-hour cleanup window may result in loss of deposit.
