Not-for-profit organizations desiring to utilize a Township-owned facility for recreation or other purposes may be granted permission to utilize a Township facility under conditions set forth in the Township of Montville's Policy for Use of Township Facilities. Every not-for-profit organization desiring to use a Township-owned facility shall submit a financial report as required under § 271-3.
[Amended 5-25-2010 by Ord. No. 2010-18]
Every organization utilizing a Township-owned facility or being scheduled to use a Township facility must submit to the Township Chief Financial Officer, on or before April 30, a complete set of financial statements (including a statement of revenues and expenses and a balance sheet), a schedule reconciling the justification of any registration fee, and a prospective annual budget. An organization that does not charge a registration fee, dues, or any other type of fee, and which has complied with legal requirements to file financial statements with either the Election Law Enforcement Commission or with the Internal Revenue Service, shall be exempt from the financial reporting requirement. An organization that is exempt because it has filed financial statements with either the Election Law Enforcement Commission or with the Internal Revenue Service shall provide the Township with a copy of that filing. A political organization that is not required to file financial statements with the Election Law Enforcement Commission shall be exempt from the financial reporting requirements upon certification that it is not required to file with the Election Law Enforcement Commission. Such certification shall be made by an officer of the group and shall be made part of the application for use of Township facilities form.
Failure to provide a year-end financial report by April 30 of the subsequent year shall make an organization ineligible to utilize Township facilities and shall revoke that organization's entitlement to the Township-Endorsed Event Policy.
Any organization utilizing a Township-owned facility shall be required to provide evidence of insurance sufficient to protect the interest of the Township.
