Policy
Clover Park Technical College is an educational institution provided and maintained by the people of the state of Washington. The college reserves its facilities, buildings and grounds for those activities that are related to its educational mission. At other times, the college facilities may be made available to other individuals and organizations provided that use is in congruence with public interest and welfare, subject to the laws of the state of Washington and the rules and regulations of the college.
The college will comply with the Statewide Space Use Policy 1.01 for the efficient use of state facilities and in support of building a modern work environment.
Primary consideration will be given to activities specifically related to the college's business and mission. No arrangements will be made that interfere with, or operate to the detriment of the college.
Reasonable conditions may be imposed to regulate the timeliness of requests, appropriateness of space assigned, time of use, and to ensure proper maintenance of the facilities. The College reserves the right to prohibit the use of college facilities by groups or activities which are secret or restrict membership or attendance in a manner inconsistent with the public and nondiscriminatory organizations as defined and listed by the Attorney General of the United States.
