Guidelines For District Building Use
(Pike Conservation District)

The facility shall be used as office space and as an educational facility by the Pike County Conservation District.

Administration of the building by the Conservation District is guided by a lease agreement limiting uses to civic and community meetings and educational programs held or sponsored by the Conservation District or associated conservation, environmental, or outdoor recreation related community groups. This does not include private parties, trade associations, or other groups not associated with the conservation or educational use guidelines.

Requests for building use should be made in writing to the Conservation District at least one month in advance of the meeting date. The Administrative Assistant is responsible for scheduling all building uses and making arrangements for use of the building after business hours (8 a.m. 4:30 p.m.).

Smoking and drinking alcoholic beverages shall not be allowed.

The building must be restored to its original condition. Following the meeting, all lights will be turned off (including the bathroom and the outdoor light), windows closed, and the front and back doors locked. Clean table tops and place all trash in the dumpster.

Any damage must be reported to the District Administrative Assistant immediately.
