Meeting Room Policy and Terms of Use

Summit County Public Health is pleased to open our doors to the community by allowing local government and nonprofit organizations to use our auditorium free of charge, subject to certain policies and terms of use. In order to properly manage and maintain our facility, Summit County Public Health has established the following policies and procedures.

POLICY

The auditorium is available strictly as a courtesy by Summit County Public Health for use by local government and nonprofit organizations free of charge. Commercial or political use, fundraising events or private parties are not permitted. Summit County Public Health retains full discretion to determine whether and when to allow courtesy scheduling of its meeting spaces. Summit County Public Health reserves the right to deny room usage to any applicant, or to subsequently cancel a reservation, based on the Health District’s priorities or policies. Please be advised that Summit County Public Health bears no financial responsibility for any costs related to or arising from exercising its right to cancellation of the use of a meeting room for operational reasons or for any other reason.
The fact that a group is permitted use of the auditorium does not constitute an endorsement of the group’s policies or beliefs by the Summit County Public Health.

In order to provide flexibility for room usage, it is strongly recommended that applications for room reservations be submitted at least 30 days prior to the event date. The auditorium is available from 8:00 a.m. until 4:00 p.m., Monday through Friday. No long-term or month to month agreements for usage of the auditorium will be made.  To reserve the auditorium, a completed application form must be submitted to the Summit County Public Health Administration Office in person, by U.S. mail, via email to fairwayscheduling@schd.org or by fax (330-923-7558).  The application must be signed by an authorized representative of the entity who shall sponsor the meeting and be personally responsible for the conduct of the meeting.

In addition, the authorized representative must have authority to bind their entity with financial responsibility for any damage or cleaning costs incurred by Summit County Public
Health.
Each application will be reviewed and the contact person will receive confirmation either by email or U.S. mail.  Information about the room’s availability may be provided by phone (330-923-4891); however, applications will not be considered as confirmed until a signed application is submitted and written confirmation is sent or provided by Summit County Public Health.
