Category A groups are not responsible for any custodial or rental costs.
Custodial Costs
Organizations listed in Categories B, C and D will be charged a custodian(s) cost based on the number of hours used and the custodian hourly rates.
The current hourly rates for one custodian Monday - Saturday is $45 per hour; Sundays and Holidays are $60. If more than one custodian is required for the event the rate will be adjusted accordingly.
Custodial charges are subject to a ½ hour opening and set-up charge as well as a ½ hour clean-up charge. Rentals will require a minimum of a three hour charge.
If more than one event is using the same facility, custodial costs shall be shared proportionally and that share will be determined by the Inspectional Services Department.
