Common use of Governmental Clause in Contracts

Governmental. A reasonable use fee shall be charged for the lease of school facilities and property and this fee may be offset by goods contributed or services rendered by the lessee. ”Reasonable use fee” means an amount that is at least equal to the cost for utilities, services, supplies or personnel provided to the lessee pursuant to the terms of the lease. The value of the goods will be determined by the District based upon established market price, trade in value, or posted prices so long as it is advantageous to the District. The value of services rendered shall be based upon the hourly wages of a beginning employee of this or another Arizona School District performing similar functions as determined by the District. Should disagreement between the contributor and the District occur as to the value of the goods or services offered, the District reserves the right to refuse to accept the offer. The fee schedule, documentation required from the organization, and benefits offered to an organization, are described in the applicable use agreement for that organization in its use of District property and facilities. To determine the fee associated with use of District property, the organization and its purpose are considered. In order to determine the User’s Category, whichever is in a higher Category, the organization or the purpose, determines the Category. (For example, if the organization is Category IA and the purpose for the facility use falls under Category IV, then the Category is IV.)
