POLICIES & PROCEDURES
Effective as of January 1, 2007

Space Reservations/Payment

After you have looked at our on-line Space Rental Calendar (see link below), you may reserve available space by downloading and filling out a Space Rental Contract (see link below). The first page of the Space Rental Contract must be filled out, signed, and submitted with payment in full in order for space to be reserved. The second page (Terms of Agreement) should be retained by the renter. The form and payment can be faxed (if paying with credit card), mailed (if paying with check or money order), or delivered during office hours (Tuesday through Friday, 10 a.m. to 1:00 p.m.) to the Alliance.

Time Buffer

When reserving space, please allow a “15 minute buffer” between the end-time of the previous renter and when you would like to begin. For instance, your start time would be 11:45 am if the previous renter booked the space until 11:30 am.

Code to Enter the Space

After the contract and payment are received, lessees will be provided with the code to the lock box located outside of the rehearsal space (Suite 204), which holds the key to the door. The Lessee agrees not to reveal this code to anyone for any purpose at any time. IF YOU ARE A FIRST TIME RENTER, YOU WILL NEED TO CONTACT THE ALLIANCE FOR THE CODE TO ENTER THE SPACE. THIS IS YOUR RESPONSIBILITY.

Cancellations/Refunds

If a renter cancels any part of his reservation, a full refund will be given ONLY if AASD is able to reserve the cancelled space through another renter. If AASD is unable to rent the space, a 50% refund will be issued.  A waiting list will be in effect, and every effort will be made to fill the space.
