Facility Rental Rates, Fees, and Usage Guidelines

CGCC charges fair-market rates for use of its facilities, as required by law. Commercial entities and members of the general public are charged standard rates, while government and community entities may be eligible for discounted rates, excluding services and equipment, if applicable. A "community entity" is a corporation or other legal entity whose business is non-commercial; is unrelated to the Maricopa County Community College District; and is recreational, educational, political, economic, artistic, moral, scientific, social, religious or for some other civic purpose in the interest of the community. Please contact the Resource Management Office for an estimate of rental fees.

Footnotes:

1. All rates are hourly and require a four hour minimum. Set up and clean up times are charged at the normal for-profit hourly rate with a one hour minimum.
2. Community entity facility usage rates are shown with 50% discount. Discounts do not apply to heating, lighting, piano tuning, equipment, set-up and clean-up fees, or other services that may be required.
3. Any usage that occurs during evening, weekend or holiday hours when facilities are normally closed requires an upcharge of 25%.
4. Any set-up or clean-up fees may be reduced or waived at the discretion of the Vice President, Administrative Services and need not be reported on the MCCCD quarterly report of reduced or waived fees.
5. The above published set-up fees are for basic services. Specialty set-ups will be assessed an additional $50 fee. This reflects the additional labor required.
6.

Special contracted rates may apply for special operating arrangements (i.e. - Communiversity)
7. Indoor swimming pool includes lifeguards, sauna, jacuzzi and use of showers. Does not include towels or other swimming accessories.
