Hirings that end between 10:00pm and 11:00pm
The Parish Council has decided if hiring is between 10pm and 11pm an additional charge of £10 will be charged.
The Parish Council has decided that a checklist should be completed, at the end of every hiring, to ensure any damage, or problems, are acknowledged and recorded. The checklist will be completed by the caretaker and the hirer. Both the caretaker and the hirer will sign the form. If the hirer declines to sign the form, then the signature of the caretaker will be sufficient.
In this way, both the Council and hirers will be able to allocate responsibility for any damage, or identify any problems that require resolution.
The Heybridge Parish Council reserves the right to review the above charges at the end of the financial year ending 31 March 2024
