August 2026, marks 1 year of rentals being available at the Waupun Community Center. The trends that have been observed are use of renting one room at a time over multiple rooms/full facility rentals for no more than 6 hours. This trend does not reflect on the labor cost of building supervisor at a flat rental rate for the duration of the rental. Recommendation to make the room rates by the hour instead of by the previous time limit to cover the labor cost and still generate rental revenue. The proposal below, simplifies and defines the previous rental permit. Proposed 2027 Rentable Rooms, Fees, Days, Time Limits Non-Profit Definition: A legal non -profit is a non -governmental organization formed under state law to serve a public, charitable, or social benefit rather than to make money for owners. It is bound by a non -distribution rule meaning extra money goes back into the cause, though it can still get federal tax-exempt status Resident Definition: Must have current physical household address within the City of Waupun. Resident listed on the permit is the party responsible and must be onsite during the duration of the rental. Non-Resident Definition: A household physical address that is outside the City of Waupun. Waupun home addresses that are rural/township are non-resdeint. Non-Resident listed on the permit is the party responsible and must be onsite during the duration of the rental. Non-Profit Rate Resident Rate Non-Resident Rate Community Room $25/hour $35/hour $45/hour Dining Room $25/hour $35/hour $45/hour Kitchen $25/hour $35/hour $45/hour Gymnasium $25/hour $50/hour $80/hour Conference Room $25/hour $35/hour $45/hour *Room rentals are available without conflicting with regularly scheduled Waupun Recreation Department programming. Private Party Definition: A family gathering or organization/business meeting. Must be pre-approved by Community Center Director. Community Event Definition: Large event that is open to the public. Must be pre-approved by Community Center Director. Private Party Community Event Monday – Friday, 4-9pm Saturday & Sunday, 8am – 9pm Sunday – Saturday, 6am – 9pm * 6-hour maximum rental time for private parties.
