TITLE :
REVISIONS TO COUNCIL POLICY #28
"FACILITY USE REGULATIONS"
C] INFO
E ACTION
RECOMMENDED ACTION :
If Commission concurs, recommend that City Council adopt the revisions to Council Policy #28,
Recreation Department "Facility Use Regulations."
ITEM EXPLANATION :
In an effort to provide improved customer service and to inform potential renters of the
requirements in renting a facility, park, or picnic structure, staff is recommending several
revisions, additions, and deletions to the Recreation Department's "Facility Use Regulations",
also known as Council Policy #28.
Staff has worked closely with the Police Department to include requirements that will assist them
in regulating and potentially terminating an event.
The proposed significant changes recommended by staff with regards to Council Policy 28 are as
follows:
1. There are several City parks that previously have not required submission of a "Facility Use
Application" in order to utilize the park. Instituting this regulation will allow staff to know when
large groups of people are going to gather at a park and what event will be taking place.
Knowing this will allow for appropriate monitoring of the event. Therefore, staff is recommending
the following text be included in Policy 28:
Any group of 50 or more individuals must fill out a "Park and Facility Use
Application" for any City park whether there are rental fees or not. (page 2, #2 of
the attachment)
2. Previously a "Special Event Permit" was required for groups over 1,000. Lowering that
number and obtaining a "Special Event Permit" requires the Special Events Committee to
approve the event. It will also assist the Committee in determining if additional staff, insurance,
etc. should be required.
Amplified sound has become an issue at several parks. If a renter has a "Special Event Permit"
the Police and other City staff will be aware of the event and can monitor it if complaints are
made.
For safety reasons, staff is recommending glass containers used for carrying or containing any
liquid for drinking can not be utilized in the parks, unless a renter has an approved Special
Events Permit. Staff recommends the following:
A City "Special Event Permif is required to be filed and submitted to the
Carlsbad Police Department no less than 90 days prior to the event when:
D Park activities are expected to exceed an attendance of 300
D Any amplified sound is expected to be heard beyond park boundaries.
D Park activities desire to use glass containers for drinking, (page 3, #5)
AB# 406-6
Page 2
3. During any event a contact person must be designated and remain throughout the duration of
the event. Staff recommends the following language be incorporated:
On the day of the facility rental, the event contact person must be present and have a
copy of the Facility Use Regulations, submitted Park & Facility Use Application form and
signed approved Rental Permit in his/her possession, along with valid identification during
the entire rental agreement period, (page 4, #9)
4. Further regulation was necessary in order to provide the police with the authority to terminate
events that are disturbing the neighborhood. Staff recommends:
No applicant shall permit or allow the operation of any sound system that can be heard
outside park boundaries unless the applicant has an approved City "Special Event
Permit." Cancellation of the event may occur if the noise is not controlled and/or police
are required to respond, (page 5, #14)
5. Regulations regarding alcohol were needed in order to put the burden on the applicant and their
guests to drink responsively. It also advises the renter that the serving of alcohol can be
terminated if staff determines increased risk to the City. Staff recommends:
Alcohol consumption is strictly limited to the event time defined on the approved "Rental
Permit." Alcoholic beverage service may be terminated at any time by city staff, (page 5,
#15)
6. The City, County and State have rules regarding the sales of any items. This regulation
advises the renter that they must abide by these rules. Staff recommends:
No one shall sell, offer for sale, rent or lease any merchandise, article or thing whatsoever,
unless granted a valid permit. Any organization providing any item in exchange for a
donation must be a registered State of California 501 (c)3 non profit organization and have
an authorized permit. All food sales must comply with San Diego County Health
Department Rules and Regulations, (page 7, #9)
7. inflatables (jump houses) are a liability risk to the City. Requiring that renters utilize a jump
house from a City approved vendor list reduces the City's liability. This also allows staff to monitor
the number of inflatables in a park at any one time. Staff recommends:
Inflatable (jump houses) are only allowed by permit in designated areas and must be from
the approved list of vendors on file with the City of Carlsbad. Quiet generators must be
used where electricity is not available. All generators must be placed on plywood. Non
permitted inflatables will need to be taken down, (page 8, #5)
AB# 406-6

8. It has come to the attention of staff that some groups are giving up their allotted field use times
to other groups without the knowledge of the Department. These groups may not have the proper
insurance requirements, or give staff needed information regarding their usage. This also takes
away from other residents and organizations that would like to use the fields yet were not part of
the original negotiation. Staff recommends:
Fields can not be sublet or field time given to a group other than the approved
applicant without prior authorization of the Recreation Director or designee. (page 10, #8)
9. On several occasions the ability to have horses or ponies at the Ranch would add to an event.
This allows horses/ponies to be at the Ranch on a limited basis as approved by the Recreation
Director or designee. Staff recommends:
Horses or ponies are permitted in designated areas of Leo Carrillo Ranch Historic Park as
authorized by the Recreation Director or designee. (page 11, #8 of the attachment)
FISCAL IMPACT:
There will be minimal fiscal impacts in making these changes to the "Facility Use Regulations."
