CVUSD reforms its facility rental price structure
On Oct. 25, CVUSD announced changes involving the price structure for renting any district facilities, such as a classroom or stadium. “We [might] have outside groups that want to do a…performance, like a concert choir concert or some type of an instrumental performance,” Stephen Lepire, NPHS principal, said.
The new price structure divides potential renters into three tiers, each of increasing cost. The first tier is district events, the second is programs that benefit students, and all other groups fall under the last tier. “This practice does away with years of unwritten agreements that were disproportionately benefiting a few select organizations,” a CVUSD announcement email stated.
The exception to this fee structure is renting a facility for media production. The board-approved fee schedule reads, “If you are interested in using any District facility for commercial film and television production, we quote location fees on a case by case basis.” This new system gives all but a few groups a clear set cost for renting a district facility.
