Whether it's to rent the ice for a shinny hockey game or to host a large event, City facilities offer an innovative and economical way of bringing people together.

Facility rental options are provided in the links on the left side of this page.

Depending on the facility rental, you may be required to have insurance. Insurance is available, even on a optional basis, through the City’s Insurance Broker. See What is User Insurance? below.

What if I don't have insurance? See What is User Insurance?.

User insurance programs have been in existence for over 15 years. This program provides individuals and/or groups renting a City facility or permitting City space (known as "Users") with liability protection to mitigate the financial exposure resulting from a claim.

If you cannot produce the required insurance, you can purchase the required insurance through a program offered by the City’s Insurance Broker at a nominal cost.

Insurance limits range from $2 to $5 million per occurrence for Bodily Injury or Property Damage to a Third Party including:

• Tenant's Legal Liability: provides coverage for damage to the rented or permitted premises or the area of the premises that is being rented.
• Participants to Participant Liability: provides for coverage for injury to one participant by another participant.
• Non Owned Automobile Liability: provides insurance coverage for vehicles not owned, leased or rented by any of the named insured's, for example, the user stated in the facility rental contract and provides protection to the facility user's participants and volunteers, who may use their private vehicles to conduct business on behalf of the facility user.
• (For Alcohol Socials Only) Host Liquor Liability Coverage: provides coverage for claims resulting from the serving of alcohol.

Note: Insurance coverage applies when the facility is rented to and being used by the User. In the event of a claim, there is a deductible of $1,000 payable by the User to the insurer.
