HERITAGE AND CULTURAL ARTS COMMISSION
MEETING DATE: September 8, 2011
SUBJECT: Heritage Park & Museums Facility Use Policy
Report by John Hartnett, Heritage & Cultural Arts Manager and
Elizabeth Isles, Heritage Park & Museums Director
ATTACHMENTS: 1. Draft Heritage Park & Museums Facility Use Policy
2. Map of Heritage Park & Museums Facilities
RECOMMENDATION: Receive report and recommend approval of the Heritage Park &
Museums Facility Use Policy and Rental Fee Schedule to the City
Council.
FINANCIAL STATEMENT: None
DESCRIPTION: The City Council adopts Facility Use Policies for each of the City's
facilities or park areas that are available for rental by the community. The Facility Use Policies establish
rules, regulations, procedures and fees governing the use of the facilities. There is a current Facility Use
Policy and Fee Schedule for the existing St. Raymond Church that was last updated in July 2009. The
City opened the new Kolb facilities at the Heritage Park & Museums this summer. The Kolb Sunday
School Barn and adjacent picnic area and front lawn are planned to be made available for rent. Staff
recommends adopting new policies based on the attributes of the new building and grounds.
The primary purpose of the Heritage Park & Museums is to provide heritage and cultural arts programs,
classes, and events for the community. When it is not being utilized for City programs, some of the
facilities will be made available for private rentals by the community. The private rentals will provide
additional revenue that will help partially offset the costs of operating the Heritage Park & Museums and
allow the community to enjoy the facility in a more private setting.
Staff has developed a Draft Heritage Park & Museums Facility Use Policy, which is Attachment 1. The
policy is based on the standard policies established for other City facilities such as the Shannon
Community Center, Dublin Senior Center, Dublin Public Library and Dublin Civic Center. The rental
rules have been developed to protect the Heritage Park & Museums from damage and ensure they are kept
in suitable condition for programs and services. Some of these rules include: not allowing the furniture to
be moved outdoors; no use of open flames in any of the indoor facilities, restrictions on the hanging of
decorations, use of rice, birdseed and confetti, etc. The following is a summary of the key components of
the Draft Facility Use Policy.

ITEM NO.: S.1
G:\HERITAGE COMM1SS10N\AGENDA_STMTS\2011\9-8-I 1 Heritage Facility Use Fees.doc
CLASSIFICATION AND PRIORITY OF USERS
The Facility Use Policies establish user ~ classifications which help to determine priority for making
reservations and the amount charged for rental fees. The table below shows the current user
classifications.
CURRENT USER GROUP CLASSIFICATIONS
Group 1-Public Agencies
Group 2 - Dublin Chamber_of Commerce, Dublin-based Charitable and Social Welfare Organizations, Homeowners
Associations and Sports Leagues
Group 3 - Individuals or other Groups
(Resident and Non-Residenf distinctions)
Group 4 - Commercial Uses
,, (Resident and Non-Resident distinctions)
The classifications are used to assign priorities for making reservations. Additionally, the rental fees are
different for each classification. This ensures that residents and those serving the greater good of the
community have priority for use and reduced rental fees. These are the same classifications used for
rental of other City facilities.
The draft policy for the Heritage Park & Museums allows Dublin residents and non-profit groups to make
reservations up to one=year an advance of the rental date for weekend rentals (Friday through Sunday).
Reservations by non-residents and other groups could be made nine months in advance for weekend use.
Reservations for commercial uses could be made six months in advance for weekend use. Reservations
for weekday use (Monday through Thursday) could be made up to three months in advance for all
classifications of users. This is the same reservation schedule specified in the Shannon Community
Center Use Policy. It is,also the same as the Senior Center, except the Senior Center is not available for
weekday use at this time.
The City typically has provisions-fo`r continuous use, which is for groups that want to book the facility on
an on-going basis. However, continuous use is not currently allowed for St. Raymond Church and is not
being recommended for the Kolb Sunday School Barn and grounds. Additionally, since the Heritage Park
& Museums will serve as a primary location for classes and programs, it is necessary that the City have
first priority for scheduling before opening the facilities to ongoing use.
AVAILABLE RENTAL HOURS
Under the current policy, only St. Raymond Church is available for rental. The Church is available for
rental Sunday through Thursday from 8:00 A.M. to 10:00 P.M., and Friday and Saturday from 8:00 A.M.
to 12:00 Midnight. The minimum rental period on all days is currently two hours.
With the addition of the Kolb Sunday School Barn and grounds, Staff anticipates that the facilities will
provide an ideal location for weddings, private parties and fundraisers. Since Saturday rentals are at a
premium and since it is felt that it would be difficult to conduct two separate weddings/private parties on
the same day, Staff is recomrriending that during the peak season of May through September, the
minimum rental period on Saturdays be established as a six hour "Private Package" rental in which both
facilities, as well as a portion of the park grounds would be included or an optional package that doesn't
2 of 5
include rental of the church. This wil'1 maximize the revenue potential from private rentals scheduled
during the high demand seasons.
FACILITIES AVAILABLE FOR RENTAL
Of the facilities at the Heritage Park & Museums, Staff proposes that only St. Raymond Church and the
Kolb Sunday School Barn be available for rental. If desired, the picnic facilities and front lawn will be
available for use with rental of the Kolb Sunday School Barn. For reference, Attachment 2 is a map of
the facilities indicating the building names.
St. Raymond Church is California's oldest wooden church, originally constructed in 1860 and is now
listed on the National Register of Historic Places in California. The facility can be used for weddings,
funerals, baptisms, private functions and special events. The church has a capacity of 84 participants and
includes stationary pews, an altar, a bride's dressing room, a sixty inch Big Screen TV and abuilt-in
sound system. Additionally, a paved Courtyard/Gazebo adjacent to the Church is available to groups as
part of the rental agreement.
The Kolb Sunday School Barn has a comparable capacity of 88 for dining and approximately 120 for
audience-style seating. The facility includes a large open room and a stage with abuilt-in lighting and
sound system. Rental of the Kolb Sunday School Barn would include the use of the picnic facilities
which can accommodate 80 for seating and the Heritage Park front lawn, which has a large grass area
facing Donlon Way that can accommodate an outdoor tent. The Kolb House would not be available for
rental but would still remain open on weekdays and weekends and be accessible to the public during
regular business hours. The total number of parking spaces at the Heritage Park & Museums is 77
parking spots during the weekday and 92 parking spots on the weekend, as well as nine handicap spots.
POLICIES FOR CATERING
The facilities at the Heritage Park & Museums do not have a useable kitchen. If rental applicants are using
a commercial caterer, they will be required to use a caterer on the City's Approved List of Caterers. This
is not a list of "preferred" caterers, but instead a list of caterers that have gone through a process open to
any caterer that ensures they have the proper qualifications. An Approved List of Caterers has already
been established for the Senior Center and Shannon Community Center:
EVENT CLEANUP AND FACILITY CONDITIONS
Given the historical nature of the facilities, there will be a high expectation to keep the facilities intact and
damage free. Following an event, the rental party will be expected to leave the facility as it was found. A
pre-rental and post-rental checklist will be developed to evaluate the condition of the facility before and
after the event to ensure the cleaning is completed and no damage has been done during the rental.
Facility users will be required to pay a refundable $250 Security Deposit for St. Raymond Church and a
$500 Security Deposit for the Kolb Sunday School Barn to pay for any repair of damages or additional
cleaning required as a result of the rental.
RENTAL FEES
Historically, when establishing rental fees for a facility, Staff has completed a fee survey of other cities
with similar facilities. Staff conducted a market survey of the rental fees of five similar "historical"
municipal/private facilities in the East Bay.
Staff recommends that the rental rate for St. Raymond Church remain the same since the rates were
recently increased in 2009. The current Base Rate for the Church is $60 per hour.
For the Kolb Sunday School Barn, the survey included facilities with a variety of dining capacities,
amenities and grounds. The average rental cost per person per hour for a facility (based on the maximum
3 of 5
dining capacity) was $2.08. Therefore, based on a maximum capacity of 88 dining for the Kolb Sunday
School Barn, Staff recommends a base rate of $170 per hour, or approximately $1.93 per person per hour.
The $170 rental rate includes use of the Kolb Sunday School Barn, the picnic area and front lawn area, a
sound and lighting system and portable staging. Staff believes that including more amenities at a
reasonable cost should make the facility more marketable in the region, and increase revenues. It should
be noted that Staff recommends that a portion of the park grounds only be rentable in conjunction with the
Kolb Sunday School Barn, and not rentable as a separate facility.
As discussed earlier in the report, Staff is recommending that a Special Private-Party Package (includes
weddings, private parties and fundraisers) for those in the Group 3 category be established. This package
would replace the current "Special Wedding Package" for St. Raymond Church of $300 for afive-hour
rental. The Private-Parry Package would include the St. Raymond Church, Kolb Sunday School Barn,
picnic area, front lawn and both restroom facilities for a six hour period at a Base Rate of $1,240 for
residents, which represents a 10% discount when compared to renting the facilities separately ($1,380 full
price). Any additional hours of rental beyond the special six-hour rate will be charged at the non-
discounted fee. Additionally, if a resident applicant only wishes to rent the Kolb Sunday School Barn and
facilities and not the Church under the Private-Party Package, the six hour rate will be a Base Rate of
$918, which also represents a 10% discount of the full price.
Calculation of Fees for Different User Groups
The proposed base rate of $170 per hour for the Kolb Sunday School Barn would be charged to users
classified as Group 3 Resident Individuals or Other Groups. Historically the City has used a formula to
calculate the discounted fees for non-profit groups and public agencies, and the increased fees charged to
non-residents and for commercial uses. The proposed fees for the new facilities were calculated using the
same formulas. Following are the proposed rental fees:
Classification of Rental Use Discount 1 Increase from

SUMMARY
The Draft Heritage Park & Museums Facility Use Policy establishes rules and regulations to protect
the investment the City has made in the buildings. It also maximizes the revenue potential from
private rentals which will provide a revenue source to reduce the costs of operating the facility.
Once the fee rates are approved, Staff recommends accepting rental applications beginning January 1,
2012 for reservations beginning May 1, 2012. Staff would also request the flexibility to, on a case-by-
case basis, approve and implement rental applications that are requested prior to May 1St
RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends the Heritage and Cultural Arts
Commission receive the report and recommend approval of the Heritage Park & Museums Facility Use
Policy and Rental Fee Schedule to-the City Council.
