I <br />Staff recommends the following amendments for the Board's consideration to incorporate the <br />new Whitted Meeting Facilities: <br />1. Allow the main meeting room (room 230), and the multi - purpose rooms (rooms 220, 240, <br />and 250) to be incorporated as and governed by the following use availability codes: <br />a. Use code 1 — County Departments, Affiliates, and Non - Affiliates for public <br />purposes; <br />b. Use code 5 — County Departments, Affiliates, and Non - Affiliates for social and <br />recreational uses for public purpose events; <br />c. Use code 6 - Social /recreational purposes by private parties for events not <br />meeting the public purpose definition. This use code covers reservations by non - <br />County affiliated groups for non - public purpose events (such as wedding <br />receptions, birthday parties, anniversary parties, etc.). <br />2. Allow rooms 230 (main meeting room) and the multi- purpose rooms (rooms 220, 240, <br />and 250) to be available after normal business hours for non - County use and follow the <br />amended Section 10.1 of the Policy. <br />3. Allow the existing Policy rules and procedures (reservations, special requirements, fees, <br />deposits, and use conditions) to be applied to the Whitted Meeting Facilities. <br />Asset Management Services will manage the reservations for the Whitted Meeting Facilities. <br />This policy is recommended for implementation immediately upon approval in order that staff <br />can accommodate current and future requests for the facilities. <br />The overall Facilities Use Policy is being reviewed as part of the Space Study Work Group's <br />scope. Updates to the Policy may be recommended to the Board for consideration in March <br />2015. <br />FINANCIAL IMPACT: Should the Board approve this or other Policy amendments with regard <br />to the Whitted Meeting Facilities, additional fee revenue will be projected and will be included <br />within Budget Amendment #1. This Budget Amendment is scheduled to be presented to the <br />Board during its September 16, 2014 regular meeting. <br />
