Eligibility criteria for community groups hiring Council owned community halls

S355 Committees have delegated authority to assess the eligibility for community fee hire of Council owned community halls. To be classified as a community group, the following criteria must be met:

• They’re an incorporated association; or

• They’re an unincorporated association; and

• The community group organisation purposes are altruistic meaning, they promote, provide or carry out activities, facilities or projects for the benefit or welfare of the community or any members of the community who have a particular need by reason of youth, age, infirmity or disablement, poverty or social or economic circumstances.

The bond for booking the hall is intended as a risk management measure. Applying it to this category of user is at the discretion of the committee. S355 Committees have delegated authority to determine whether to apply a bond and understands the risk and possible impact on the committee itself meeting its responsibilities and obligations to maintain the hall, if it does not.

Failure to satisfy the above criteria will result in fees being charged at commercial rates.
