ACKNOWLEDGMENTS
Minimum Age. I certify that I am 18 years of age or older and am an authorized representative of Applicant.
Application Timeline. I understand that I may expect receipt acknowledgment from Burlington Parks & Recreation
within 10 business days of my application submittal.
Insurance. The City of Burlington does not maintain insurance that will respond to claims against me, the Applicant,
arising from my use, my affiliated members/participants’ use or use by those attending my activity. When required by
the City, I will provide written documentation meeting the minimum requirements outlined in the City’s Athletic Field
Use and Reservation Policy as proof of my general liability insurance coverage. (Sample information can be found on
pages 5-6 of this document.)
Field Use & Park Rules. I, the Applicant, or an individual authorized to act on the Applicant’s behalf, have read,
understand and agree to abide by all field use policies and park rules described in the City’s Athletic field Use &
Reservation Policy.
Alcohol & Marijuana. Washington State law prohibits the consumption or use of alcohol or marijuana products in any
form in public places, which includes all City of Burlington outdoor park facilities. It also prohibits the opening of
packages containing alcohol or marijuana products in any form. Please refer to the Revised Code of Washington
(RCW) sections 66.44.100 and 69.50.445 for detail. A person who violates these sections is guilty of a class 3 civil
infraction under chapter 7.80 of the RCW.
Standard of Behavior. I, the Applicant, understand that I, my affiliated members/participants and those in attendance
of my activity are expected to obey all laws governing the City of Burlington and the State of Washington and to
behave in a respectful manner during our use of the playfields. Fighting, abusive or threatening language, public
urination, intoxication and littering are examples of behaviors that are considered unacceptable. I understand it is my
responsibility to address unacceptable behavior if it occurs. The City of Burlington may at its discretion terminate my
Field Use Permit if unacceptable behavior concerns persist.
Field Prep & Cleanup. Equipment I wish to setup to support my activity must be preapproved, in writing, by the City.
I understand that I am responsible for leaving my designated playfield area free of debris and garbage upon my
activity’s conclusion. I will place garbage created by my activity in the waste dumpster provided onsite or I will haul it
off-site. I also understand that I will be responsible for payment of a cleanup fee when the City deems my post-
activity cleanup inadequate.
Cancellations & Changes. I understand that once my application is approved, the Cancellation & Refund Policy
described in the City’s Athletic Field Use & Reservation Policy applies. My written confirmation must be received by
the City in order for my cancellation or change to be considered binding.
Departmental Access. I understand that Burlington Parks & Recreation and the City’s authorized representatives
shall have free access to the premises at all times.
Private Vehicles. My personal vehicles and those of my affiliated participants and guests are not permitted on the
playfields at any time unless prior written approval has been granted from the City.
Playfield Conditions. I understand that my playfield reservations may be cancelled at the City’s discretion when it
has determined imminent conditions exist that could potentially cause damage to the playfields or put field users’
safety at risk. Should this occasion occur, I can expect the City to notify me with as much advance notice as is
feasibly diligent.
