CITY OF RAMSEY <br />ATHLETIC FIELD AND TOURNAMENT USE RENTAL POLICY <br />A. Background: With almost 30 actively programed parks, Ramsey has a variety of <br />athletic fields available to use. The City of Ramsey is responsible for scheduling <br />and coordinating the use of these fields. <br />B. Purpose: The purpose of athletic fields is to increase the recreational <br />opportunities available to the community. Due to the large demand for the use <br />and rent of these fields, there is a process to be completed and followed. The <br />permit to utilize a field gives exclusive use of the field to the permit holder and <br />excludes the general public from using the field at the allowed time. <br />C. Eligible Users: Eligible users are broken down into 2 groups (1) Resident and (2) <br />Non-resident. <br />1. Resident <br />1.

Non -Resident <br />1. Any person, civic group, organization, business, industry, <br />church or school not residing or having physical facilities <br />located within the City limits of Ramsey. <br />Note: In cases where it is not clear whether a group or organization merits a <br />residential status, the Parks Staff or City Administrator shall make the <br />determination. Proof of non-profit status and/or additional information may be <br />requested to assist in this determination. <br />D.
