Senate Bill No. 1404 Civic Center Act • Legislative Intent – Economic Impact • The ability of school districts to maintain their facilities and grounds has been jeopardized due to severe budget cuts in recent years and the current economic climate in which school districts now operate. • The benefits of the Act include a mechanism by which school districts may recover costs related to the depreciation of school facilities, for the use of those facilities by non-school district users. New use fees collected as capital direct costs will contribute to the school facilities and grounds, such that they continue to exist in a condition of good repair that serves the school community. • California Ed. Code 38130 • Enacted in 1917 • Provided the legal basis for the provision of school facilities as civic centers • Provided school districts with guidelines for charging usage fees
• Amended in 2014 • States that “Every public school facility is considered a civic center where citizens, school-community councils and clubs as well as senior, recreation, education, political, artistic and other organizations may meet. The school district may grant the use of school facilities and grounds upon certain terms and conditions deemed proper by the governing board and subject to specified limitations, requirements, and restrictions set forth within law.” • The benefit of the Act includes a mechanism by which school districts may recover costs related to the depreciation of school facilities, for the use of those facilities by non-school district users. New use fees collected as capital direct costs will contribute to the school district’s cost to maintain repair, restore and refurbish school facilities and grounds, such that they continue to exist in a condition of good repair that serves the school and community.
Three Main Categories of Usage Fees 38130 outlines three main examples of fee classifications: • Group 1 applies to group meetings whose primary purpose and activities are in direct support of school and/or TCUSD programs. • Girl Scouts, Boy Scouts, Camp Fire USA, YMCA, PTA, school foundations, booster clubs, recognized employee • organizations/associations, civic and religious organizations that promote school activities and governmental agencies subject to the District’s discretion. Group II applies to non-profit organizations or churches that arrange for and supervise sports league activities for youth – as well as • other non-profit/fundraising groups whose activities are not directly beneficial to TCUSD youth or school activities. Examples include organized youth sports leagues, “other” non-profits and fundraising groups. Group III applies to for profit events where admission fees are charged or contributions are solicited and the net receipts are not • expended for the welfare of the pupils of TCUSD or charitable purposes. Examples include adult activities/sports leagues, commercial entertainment groups etc. 38134 (a) • The governing board of a school district shall authorize the use of school facilities or grounds under its control by a nonprofit • organizations, and clubs or associations organized to promote youth and school activities. 38134 (c) • The governing board of any school district may charge an amount not to exceed its direct costs for use of its school facilities by • any entity, including religious organization or church, that arranges for and supervises sports league activities for youth. 38134 (e) • In the case of entertainment or meetings where admission fees are charged or contributions are solicited and the net receipts are • not expended for the welfare of the pupils of the school district or for charitable purposes, a charge shall be levied for the use of school facilities or grounds which charge shall be equal to fair rental value.
Board policy related to Facilities Use • Board Policy 1330 was updated and adopted by the Board on June 15, 2016. The board policy addresses the adoption of a comprehensive schedule of fees for use of facilities. In addition, the board policy states that the Board will grant use of facilities and/or grounds without charge to school-related organizations whose activities directly relate to or benefits the District Schools. Other organizations will be charged under the Civic Center Act.
Next steps • Prepare a new facility use study to comply with the three categories of pricing as defined in the California Civic Center Act. • Update request for facility use process. • Training organizations and staff regarding process. • Develop a flowchart detailing the process.
