Facility Use Procedures

These procedures are organized into four categories based upon the type of event and origin of the request:

  2. Internal District/Campus Events
  3. District/Campus Sponsored Events
  4. Free Speech Events/Demonstrations

1. Requests from the Community to use District Facilities


Use of District Facilities by the Community requires a Community Facility Use Agreement. The “Community” includes any individual, business (including vendors), organization, group, school, or board outside of the authority of the San Bernardino Community College District, including employees of the District who request the use of District facilities for personal use. Requests for use can be made using the following procedures:

  • Obtain and fill out the Community Facilities Use Application.

    A completed Community Facilities Use Application constitutes the contract for use. This form can be obtained through the Campus Facilities Office (see contact information above).
    The Facilities Office will verify the availability of the requested space and calculate the rental fee.

  • Provide a Certificate of Insurance:

    A certificate of insurance is required from the requesting entity and must list the San Bernardino Community College District as an additional insured with the limits acceptable to the District as required by Administrative Procedure 6700.

  • Pay the Rental Fees:

    CONTACT THE APPROPRIATE FACILITIES OFFICE FOR CURRENT FACILITY RENTAL RATES (Reference contact information above). Fees will be calculated by the Facilities Office. Fees must be paid with the submission of the Community Facility Use Application or upon acceptance of the application. Fair rental or direct cost fees will be assessed in accordance with AP6700 at the current rates. Direct costs are the costs of supplies, utilities, custodial services, services of any other District employees, and salaries paid to District employees necessitated by the organization’s use of District facilities. Groups or organizations that qualify to be assessed direct costs are identified in Ed Code 82542(a). Any authorization to deviate from AP6700, such as a waiver of fees or charging of direct cost in lieu of the fair rental value, requires manager and Board approval prior to approval of the event.

  • Submission:

    Send completed Community Application, certificate of insurance, and fee payment to the appropriate Facilities Department for processing and approval.

    Incomplete submissions will be returned.

Classroom speaker arrangements are directed by Board Policy and Administrative Regulation 4320.
