Naperville Park District Ordinance 641

NAPERVILLE PARK DISTRICT ORDINANCE NO. 641

Section 5.02. Insurance and Hold Harmless Agreement. (a) Except as provided in subsection 5.02(a)(1), applicants for a Permit shall acquire general liability insurance to protect themselves and the District from liability resulting from their use of District Property and provide proof of such insurance to the District before the District will issue a Permit to an otherwise valid applicant. The District must be named on such policy as additional insured. Where possible, an applicant may acquire a rider to the District's insurance policy at the applicant's cost and expense. Applicants should contact the District's administrative office for more information. (1) For activities involving the exercise of First Amendment rights, including without limitation parades, public gatherings, speeches and rallies, this requirement may be waived by the District if the applicant can demonstrate that their organization cannot procure general liability insurance or that the cost of procuring such insurance or acquiring a rider to the District's insurance policy is prohibitive. (b) Every applicant must execute and deliver to the Park District an agreement to indemnify and hold the District harmless from legal liability, property damage or injury to persons caused by the negligent or unlawful acts of the applicant or any member, volunteer, employee, agent, participant, or other Person associated with the applicant or their group or organization. Section 5.03. Security/Damage Deposit. (a) A security/damage deposit may be required for any Permit. The District shall refund the deposit if the Person responsible for the activity cleans any refuse caused or left by the activity or the activity's participants and restores District Property to the condition it was in prior to the activity to the District's satisfaction. If the District is required to clean up or restore District Property after the activity, the Person responsible for the activity shall reimburse the District for all costs and expenses associated with the clean-up and restoration. The cost of the clean-up and restoration shall be taken from the security/damage deposit. If there are any funds remaining after the clean-up and restoration costs have been subtracted, they shall be returned to the appropriate Person. If the costs and expenses for the clean- up and restoration exceed the amount of the security/damage deposit, the District reserves the right to pursue any and all legal options. (b) If the security/damage deposit would create a financial hardship for the applicant in which the applicant can so demonstrate, the District may accept a written agreement to clean up and restore District Property after the activity. If the applicant does not satisfactorily perform according to the agreement, the District reserves the right to pursue any and all legal options. Section 5.04. Other Authority. Activities otherwise prohibited under this Ordinance, or any other District ordinance, policy, rule, or regulation may be conducted or engaged in by a Person, their agents and/or employees, if done in strict conformance with the provisions of an agreement with the District which has been duly authorized by the Board.
