Meeting Rooms
New Meeting Room Fees begin January 1, 2013. Rampart Library District has not changed its fee structure for meeting rooms since the new libraries opened in 2003 and 2004. During this time, the costs for operating the meeting rooms have increased significantly – heating, electricity, water as well as staff time. The tables and chairs have all had hard use and at some point will need replacement. Out of necessity, the District is making a few changes to the fee structure beginning in January 2013. The after hours fee will increase from $15 to $20 for everyone to reflect our increased costs for staffing and the building. Other than that, there are no changes to the non-profit/community groups because of our continued commitment to support these groups. There is a new category of charges for social events such as birthday parties, showers, funerals, anniversary parties, weddings/wedding receptions, holiday parties, etc. The charges for these types of events are very minimal compared to other venues in our community. See below under Meeting Room Fees for new rates as of January 1, 2013. The meeting rooms in our libraries provide an important service to our community. We hope that these changes will insure their continued viability into the future.
Availability of Meeting Rooms
Meeting rooms may be scheduled during hours the libraries are open. However, meetings at the Woodland Park Public Library may be scheduled until 8 p.m. on Tuesday through Thursday. There will be a minimum charge of $25 for the clean-up fee, unless the room is left in its original condition.
An event planned for the Rotary Terrace at WPPL may have to be cancelled in the event of inclement weather unless the large meeting room at WPPL is also booked as a backup. Both the Rotary Terrace and the large meeting room at WPPL should be booked at the same time if a backup is desired.
