D. No equipment or any furnishings shall be removed from the building, except by express permission from the general manager, the manager's authorized representative, or the building supervisor.

E. Garbage and trash must be placed in containers provided and left where required by the building supervisor.

F. Decorations used within the hall or on the grounds shall not create a fire hazard, and must have the prior written approval of the building supervisor. This prohibition may include, but not be limited to, candles or open flame, hay bales and Christmas trees. The right to limit the size and amount of decorations is reserved by the building supervisor.

Decorating of the upper walls (above the wood trim approximately nine feet above the floor) or ceiling is prohibited except from permanently installed eyes and hooks and approved by the building supervisor. Pins or thumbtacks may be used on bulletin board material on walls. The use of tape, nails or staples is prohibited on any painted surface and floor of the building.

G. Event signs may be posted not more than five (5) days prior to the event and must be removed within one (1) day after the event. Failure to remove signs in a timely manner may result in lessee being assessed a sign removal charge.

H. The use of confetti, rice or dance floor wax is prohibited.

I. Safe building and/or room capacity, as posted, shall not be exceeded.

N. Smoking is prohibited in the Veterans' Memorial as provided by California State Law (Labor Code 6405.5).

O. Reservations may be made no earlier than twelve (12) months in advance. However, recurring events on a weekly, monthly or annual basis, such as Pinedorado, American Legion monthly meeting, or an event requiring longer than twelve (12) months to prepare for, may be scheduled on an ongoing basis, by written authorization by the general manager. The number of advance reservations by any particular individual, group, corporation or organization may be limited when such is necessary in the public interest and at the discretion of the general manager. Nonprofit organizations shall take precedence over for profit use where a scheduling conflict arises. Such determination may be made by the general manager. The decision of the general manager regarding advance reservations shall be final. The district reserves the right to cancel any reservation if the building is required for district use, or for emergency purposes.

P. Applications for use of the building or grounds shall be accompanied by a deposit pursuant to the fee schedule on file at the district office. Upon confirmation of the reservation the district shall require full payments of the rental fee and determine if an additional deposit is required. This rental deposit shall be held by the district and forfeited if lessee fails to cancel the use of the building prior to 90 days from the time scheduled for such use. General Manager may waive collection of deposit under extenuating circumstances. The rental fee for that time reserved shall be deducted from the amount received and the balance, if any, shall be returned to the lessee. This deposit shall also be applied to repair or maintenance of the building, if in the opinion of the building supervisor the lessee or guests of the lessee caused damage to the building beyond usual wear and tear, or if the lessee fails to leave the building in good, clean condition in accordance with the rules herein regarding clean-up. This does not relieve the lessee of the responsibility of additional charges if the deposit does not cover the cost to restore the building to its original condition at the beginning of the rental period. An appropriate refund shall be made within seven days of end of the rental period. For regularly recurring uses the deposit shall remain on file with the district until such regularly recurring use is terminated.

Q. All users of the Veterans' Memorial Building shall provide the district with a current certificate of insurance from an insurer authorized to provide coverage in the state of California providing for general liability coverage, naming the Cambria Community Services District as additionally named insured. The amount of coverage shall be in an amount established by the district and shall be provided before use begins. This coverage may be available from the district at the users' expense.

R. The sale of alcoholic beverages is prohibited unless permission has been granted by the general manager or the manager's authorized representative. Any sale and/or consumption of alcoholic beverages on the premises shall be subject to the rules and regulations of the alcoholic beverage control (ABC) board. Additionally, CCSD must be provided with a copy of the ABC permit.

The sale or serving alcoholic beverages on the premises requires that the lessee provide the CCSD with an additional or combined insurance policy with specific coverage for the sale and/or serving of alcoholic beverages.

S. Every effort will be made to schedule adequate clean-up time after an event. If use does not allow for adequate clean-up time, the general manager, or his or her designated representative may limit the event to ensure adequate clean-up time and/or advise the next user that adequate clean-up will not take place prior to their scheduled event.
