§ 10-25. Reserving dates for use.

(a)

To ensure that non-profit corporations, as defined by R.S. 12:201 et seq., have priority use of the Slidell Municipal Auditorium, the mayor, or his designee, shall allow a public agency, school, or school-sponsored organization to reserve dates for use of the auditorium or other city buildings during the month of January of each year. The books will be open for reservations in the month of January of each year for reservations for the following year. On February 1 of each year, reservations shall be open to all groups.

(b)

The Rufus Viner Memorial Center and any other city building, excluding the city council chambers and the meeting room on the first floor of city hall, may be used by for-profit organizations as well as non-profit organizations, public agencies, schools or school-sponsored organizations. Monthly or weekly uses are allowed, but since it is the intent of the city to allow as much diversity in use as possible, those dates will be divided among groups making requests.

(c)

The city council chambers may be used by public agencies only, and reservations shall be made through the city council office.
