NORBECK GROVE COMMUNITY ASSOCIATION
RULES AND REGULATIONS FOR
USE OF THE CLUBHOUSE 1. Use of the Clubhouse is restricted to groups of 125 people or less as required by Montgomery County Fire Code.

2. The Clubhouse may only be used by a Norbeck Grove Community Association member, hereafter referred to as "user", for a private function. Homeowners current in all fees and assessments due to the Association, and authorized users of said homeowners, shall be charged a user fee as determined by the Board of Directors. The Clubhouse may be rented only by an individual who is actually using it for the particular function. Neither a Norbeck Grove homeowner nor renter may "sponsor" a non-resident who will be the actual user.

3. The Clubhouse Committee (hereafter "Committee") of the Norbeck Grove Community Association or the management agent shall exercise the right of authorization or denial of the use of the Clubhouse. The Committee further reserves the right to impose conditions and restrictions on a particular user agreement, in addition to those specifically enumerated in these Rules and Regulations, if the committee believes that such conditions and restrictions are reasonably necessary to protect the property interest of the Association and to ensure that the use of the Clubhouse will not disturb the peace and harmony of the community. Any denial of a user application or the imposition of a condition or restriction not enumerated in these Rules by the Committee may be appealed by the applicant to the Board of Directors within ten (10) days of the denial or imposition of the conditions or restrictions.

The appeal must be made in writing to the management agent. The Board of Directors may affirm, reverse, or modify the decision of the Committee.

4. User applications must be submitted to the management agent at least thirty (30) days prior to the scheduled activity. The Association reserves the right to waive the thirty (30) day requirement.

A refundable security deposit of $250.00 and the appropriate fee must accompany the user application. Use of the clubhouse will be considered confirmed upon signature of the User Agreement by both parties and receipt by the Association of the user fee and security deposit. Two separate payments must be made for the security deposit and the user fee. All payments must be made by personal check, certified check or money order. No cash will be accepted. The rental agreement and payment must be submitted to the management agent. If the check does not clear the bank due to insufficient funds, the Association may apply the rental fee and NSF charge, currently $25, to the clubhouse renter’s Association account.

5. The user agrees to be on the premises of the Clubhouse at all times during the period of authorized use. The user will indemnify Norbeck Grove Community Association for all damages, including legal fees and costs, resulting from any injury to person or property which may occur at the Clubhouse premises during the period of use. The user agrees that he/she shall hold the Norbeck Grove Community Association, the Board of Directors, the Committee, and any individual representative, director, employee or agent of the Association harmless as to any such injury or damage.
